Thanks Kate! Yes, my query was coming in at 410 words before the two sentences I would liked to have added. I did "customize" the first paragraph to the specific agent I am going to query so that the agent knows that I researched the authors they represent, recent sales, and their wish list. That ate up 48 words. :-)

ThatтАЩs not in a the realm of тАЬtoo longтАЭ imho. I wouldnтАЩt worry about adding a few more sentences at that length.

Good to know! I am really excited about getting my debut into the hands of agents for their review for consideration for representation! I think adding those sentences at the end of my bio will help "sell" this even more!
