Material was submitted same day. Response still pending. I haven't been this excited in a while. Fingers crossed!
Thanks for getting in touch. I'm very interested in your idea. If you are still seeking representation, please follow the prompts below. We will assess your material and get back to you after that.
I do see that you already included a full manuscript. If you have made any revisions, please send the newest version.
Submission Guidelines
It will take me about 8-12 weeks to get to your material.
Submit your material as an email attachment in Word.docx (or Adobe pdf). Please remember I get A LOT of material to read, so name the file(s) "YourLastname"--"manuscript keyword".doc. (.e.g., Smith-Balloon.doc)
For a Work of Fiction:
* Include a short narrative synopsis detailing the beginning, middle, and end of your story and the first 30-40 pages; a narrative bio focusing on your expertise and your writing.
For a Work of Non-Fiction:
* Think about 4 questions that need to be addressed: Why this book; why now; why am I the best person to write it; and what will I do practically to market and sell the book
* Included a half-page -- 1 page overview of the book (an in-a-nutshell description, in effect); a table of contents listing each chapter and chapter title and sub-title; a one page or so expansion of each chapter of the Table of Contents, describing the contents of each chapter in more detail; a sample chapter or two. Bear in mind that an editor who can not see a completed manuscript wants at least to have a clear idea of the book he or she is buying and the style it will be written in. The more you can make their life easier, the better;

I've sent him a separate 2-page synopsis pasted into the body of the email when I queried him along with the opening pages pasted in the email. No attachments. I received a partial request after 8 months.
Hope this helps.
New here and just starting to query agents. Planning to submit to Peter but am slightly confused. His guidelines say, "Send a query letter with a synopsis of your book, your bio, and the opening 3 or 4 pages embedded in the body of your email."
By synopsis, does he mean a separate doc with a full 1-2 page synopsis? Or just the brief 2 paragraphs within the query letter itself?
Thanks and sorry if this is a noob question!
ER: 1/25/2021 (yes, that's 8 months to respond to a query -- form that says he's too busy to take on new clients at the moment.)
