I'm sure this question has been asked countless times. However, I'd like to ask it again. How long should a query letter be? My story involves three main protagonists. The story is told through the POV of two. Should I keep the query to one page or go to a second so that I can introduce the important other characters and show how the story centers on all of them?

One page. If your story centers around 3 protagonists, you're going to have to find an economical way of expressing that. Sorry.

Have you posted your query in SYW?

Keep it to one page.
