Dear Sir or Madame,
I am writing in regards to the writer position that you are currently looking to fill.
The job description is very appealing, and I believe that my experience, education and character would be valuable assets to your business. I am an articulate, goal-driven, and organized candidate who will exceed your expectations; I exceeded the expectations of the head of the English department during my senior year in college, when I completed my Technical and Report Writing class with a final grade over 100%. I have over 13 years of professional and technical writing experience that will give you the versatility to confidently place me in any number of roles with multiple responsibilities. I enjoy writing about the following topics: Self-help, productivity, relationships, adult psychology, children psychology true crime, biographies, movies (not T.V., Broadway, or music, however), history, mental health/mental illness (including alcoholism and addiction), spirituality/Christianity, childhood abuse/trauma. At this time, my charge is .12/word or $27.78/hour - but that price is *always* negotiable as I am more enthusiastic to write than anything else. I will not accept a position without a contract; this is for my protection and yours. I believe you will find my experience and interests intriguing. I want you to know that I will be a beneficial contributor for your company when I become a valued member of your team.
Thank you for your time,
Katherine L. Pritchard
