cover letter funtime happy happy go!
So, in cover letters you are supposed to write a one to two sentence summary of the book. This is what I really wish I could write for Firebird:
- It is a story about a world without a sun and a heroine without a mother, and how her choices deliberately or inadvertantly change all that. There is also a cute boy who thinks she's awesome, and who she thinks is awesome, too.
That second sentence cracks me up. I am easily amused.
Back in the land of MZBFM, we never wanted cover letters from the unknowns. In fact, I would surreptitiously move them to the back of the manuscript if I saw them, because I knew how much seeing one sometimes infuriated the editor.
Good times. Good times.
