Dear Star Trek Editor:
This letter is one of many that you will be receiving within the next 6 months from potential "Acting" Agents/Fans like myself who wish to urge you to publish Michael Rossi's novel "Before Destruction!". Please retain this letter and add to the others as they are sent to you for future reference.
As a potential "Acting" Agent/Trek Fan, I (the undersigned) was allowed to read the first 19 chapters of the novel with the intent that should I like it, I would represent him in this manner. As a potential "Acting" Agent/Fan, I request that you re-consider your decision about it's publication.
I (the undersigned) respectfully disagree with your appraisal that "the writing is not quite strong enough for Trek". I am of the opinion (demonstrated by my submittal and signature of this letter) that this is a quality work, and wish to see it in printed form from Pocket Books and with Paramount Pictures' blessing.
Having not been allowed, (by the author), to read the last 7 chapters of "Before Destruction!", I eagerly await it's publication and wish to express my intention of purchasing a published copy if it becomes available to the public.
Please contact Michael Rossi personally if I have been successful in representing both his and my own interests to you and should you reconsider his work. You can reach him at the following address:
813 W. Pike St.
Crawfordsville, IN 47933
Thank you for your time and patience during this rather unorthodox approach to "proposal submission".
Sincerely,
Signature:__________________________________
