The following letters give you a glimpse of close to a decade of my life. The good, bad and ugly wrapped up in a delicate delivery of facts and events like a first-person obituary. All in the name of a cover letter. What goes into one?

I’m still deciding if I’ll make a book including the doodles, freewrites and poetry I wrote in between drafts. But for now, here are four of my most recent cover letters. All of which I got callbacks and offers for (I may include letters that got me no responses in the book) and all of which are spaced out with WordPress’s formatting…. just keep scrolling after the first letter… and so forth
