How to query Vicky
Verify Weber's query status and category preferences directly on CMA's live submission page before sending anything — the available public data does not confirm a current open window.
If the Louisville Book Festival pitch sessions are still available, a face-to-face pitch is a confirmed, Weber-sanctioned path to getting in front of them directly — a strong option for writers who are manuscript-ready.
Because Weber is also a published author and educator, demonstrating craft awareness and a clear sense of your book's audience in your query letter may resonate particularly well.
Keep your query concise and specific: name your genre, word count, and a clean one-paragraph hook. Agents who also teach writing tend to notice when the query itself is well-crafted.
Do not query a category Weber has not listed as a current interest — check CMA's guidelines to confirm which genres they actively represent before submitting.
