About

If you’ve ever stared at a query spreadsheet and thought, “There has to be a better way than this,” you’re not imagining it.

I’m Frank, and I created Write Query Hook because I hit the same wall you’re probably hitting right now. When I was querying my book, the hardest part wasn’t writing the query letters, it was figuring out who actually made sense to query.

I did what everyone tells you to do: I bounced between QueryTracker, Publishers Marketplace, agency websites, interviews, and wishlists. I kept dozens of tabs open. I cross referenced scattered bios and old posts. And after all that work, I’d still find out an agent was closed, not really looking for my category, or only a “maybe” match at best. The whole process felt like you were expected to become a part-time researcher just to earn the right to press send.

And the most frustrating part? The information wasn’t just hard to find, it was often outdated, incomplete, or totally disconnected from what you actually write. Nothing was truly matching you to agents based on your work. Nothing was giving real-time clarity about who was open, what they’re looking for, and where legitimate opportunities are actually happening. So you end up scouring the internet, building a list that kind of makes sense, and hoping you didn’t waste weeks targeting the wrong people.

That’s the moment Write Query Hook clicked for me: querying shouldn’t feel like guesswork.

We believe the problem isn't you. It isn't them. It's the Query Industrial Complex.

For too long, writers have been forced to navigate outdated platforms, incomplete agent databases, and predatory “consulting” fees just to get a foot in the door. Most tools stop at teaching you how to write a good query, but what about helping you find who to send it to?

Write Query Hook was built to change that.

We've created the largest, most comprehensive literary agent database in the industry and we pair it with Smart Match, our matching tool that helps you find agents truly aligned with your work. No fluff. No scams. Just the right information, tailored to you.

And instead of checking a dozen tabs to see who’s open and what’s working right now, the Dispatch news feed puts it all in one real-time feed, including AMAs, pitch events, agent MSWLs, query tips, and more. Because publishing opportunities don't just happen inside the inbox.

Write Query Hook is here to help you break through.
