Query letter being critiqued by group of agents

I'm attending the Writers Digest Science Fiction and Fantasy Virtual Conference. There is an opportunity to have a query letter critiqued by a group of agents.

Has anyone participated in this in past years? I'm wondering if I should only provide the general text of my query letter or if I should address one of the agents attending no matter who might actually read and critique my letter. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hi @Kathleen

I have not had this kind of experience. However, I just critiqued a query on another forum, and it started with

Dear [AGENT],

[personalized message here]

Then the body of the query.

Signature

You could write in the personalized part, "Thank you for...." and fill in your specialized information.

I hope this helps...and best wishes for your success.
