Dear Agent or Editor:

I am writing to interest you in my great science fiction trilogy, PLANET OF THE FISH. My writing teacher thinks I have a great imagination.

I'm enclosing the first 500 pages of book one, in which the amazing story begins to unfold. I’m in the middle of book two now but I already know how book 3 will end. Lots of writers don't know anything about what they write about, but I've been an avid fisherman for years, so I thought this was a natural subject for a trilogy. Of course, my fish live on another planet and fight evil monsters, so it's much more exiting that way. People will be amazed when they read it.

I've written lots of other stories and will be happy to show those to you too once the trilogy comes out. I've taken lots of classes to learn how to write. Writing is my passion and I'm looking forward to seeing my books in print.

Please call me as soon as you get this so I know it got there. I really look forward to working together. Of course, if you want something changed in the trilogy I'll be glad to think about it. I'm flexible. If you don't have time to look at it, I hope you will send it to another agent or editor that might like it.

Call me write away.

Thanks,

Joe Fishbach

P.S. Isn't that a cool name for a guy writing about fish? Just think how cool it will look on the book cover!
