⭐ Be honest and genuine – we want to know you as well as your book! If a publishing house accepts your manuscript, you'll be working together for a year so it’s important that you are the right author for the imprint culturally and professionally. Be honest and let your personality shine through in your cover letter, you never know what might resonate with your potential publisher. [2/4]
