Query Tracker keeps every literary agent query in one table, so you can see who has your manuscript, who has asked for more, and who still owes you an answer.

## Log your first submission

1. Click **Query Tracker** in the left sidebar.
2. Click **+ Add Submission**.
3. Enter the **Agent Name**.
4. Choose the **Manuscript Title** from your Book Library. If the book isn't there yet, pick **+ New Book…** to add it without leaving the form.
5. Pick the **File Type** you sent (PDF, DOCX, RTF, EPUB or Other).
6. Choose a **Status**. New queries start as **Initial Inquiry Sent**.
7. Set the **Sent Date** (it defaults to today) and add any **Notes**, such as the materials you sent or the agent's preferences.
8. Click **Add Submission**.

The save button stays greyed out until both an agent name and a manuscript are filled in.

## Read the stat tiles

The four tiles at the top summarise your pipeline:

- **Active Queries** counts submissions that are **Initial Inquiry Sent**, **Requested Full** or **Sent Full** and aren't archived. **No Response** and closed statuses don't count as active.
- **Full Requests** counts submissions at **Requested Full** or **Sent Full**.
- **Offers of Rep** counts submissions marked **Offer of Rep**.
- **Total Submitted** counts everything you've logged.

## Keep it current

- Change a status straight from the coloured status pill on each row.
- The **Last Modified** column shows how long ago you last touched a submission. It turns green for under 30 days, yellow for 30 to 89 days, and red after 90 days, so stale queries stand out.
- Click any column heading to sort by it, and click again to reverse the order.
- Use the search box to find an agent or manuscript, and the status menu to show one status at a time.

## Related shortcuts

- **Query Letter Templates** opens Email Templates, where you can keep your query letter drafts.
- If you write under more than one pen name, a **Pen name** filter appears so you can focus on one name's submissions.
