I am ready to send out my query letters to potential buyers of my screenplay but fin the Hollywood Creative Directory very expensive. I tried shopping around for a second hand (more recent) version, but the price is still quite high. I understand that this directory is the best way to find names of persons to which you can address query letters to in a particular company. I'm not sure if you're the right person to ask but is there any other literary work or website where I can find the specified names of those who will read my query letters? Or should I send a general letter and they will then put it in the appropriate file to the appropriate persons?
Sorry, but there's nothing equivalent to the HCD. They have the corner on this market. Bite the bullet and buy if you really want to be serious about querying. General queries usually find their way quickly to the round file (garbage can).
Good luck with your query.
