That being said, this is a solid starting point.ĭear Peter LaBerge, Garrett Biggs, Heidi Seaborn, and Adroit readers, 1 Don’t assume that our template will work everywhere. A caveat: Different publications may have different requirements for their cover letters. Here’s an example of an efficient and entirely fictitious cover letter that works, with footnotes to explain what to incorporate into your cover letters.

As Michelle Richmond, publisher of Fiction Attic Press, writes, “It might surprise you to know that the most forgettable cover letters are often the best.” And if you’re submitting to Adroit, it might be a good idea to review our cover letter guidelines here. However, a concise and well-written cover letter encourages editors to begin reading the submitted poem, manuscript, or short story proper. An unprofessional (or even a long-winded) cover letter can warrant unenthusiastic consideration of your work.

A cover letter is your chance to create a positive first impression for the editors and readers who are reviewing your work.
