As someone who has been doing query letter revisions lately, I am always on the lookout for good advice. I was particularly amused by a post on the blog Miss Snark’s First Victim, detailing some fail-safe ways to ensure query rejection. Writers, enjoy!

jane, candid 
LOL! I finally shot off a couple of query letters this morning. I’m a nervous wreck about the whole process, but after reading the link you provided, I’m feeling a little better. I’m proud to say I didn’t make a single one of the query mistakes listed!
That should mean I’m a shoe-in, right?!?
Well… a gal can dream!
