Penny for Unsolicited Thoughts

Hi. I just wanted to share a quick thought with you regarding 13th Warrior’s write-up on the Writer’s Resource web site.

I’m a published story author,(Oh? Do tell…) and I was considering submitting a piece to you (And just last night I was on my knees praying that the great story writer, Brandon Cornett would do just that). However, upon digesting the angry, bossy tone in the write-up, I decided against it. And surely I’m not the first to do so. (I really wouldn’t know,) We all know editors are busy, overworked (Yet despite this, you figured I had nothing better to do than to read your complaints), blah-blah-blah, but who twisted your arm to make you choose that line of work? That’s right, nobody. (How do you know? Maybe i’m working off a gambling debt) I wanted to share this with you (Oh, and I’m so glad you did.) in the hope that you may take a second, more objective look at your write-up, for when I look at it, I’m left asking, Who does this person think he is, God? (Well, if I were God, you’d be in a spot of trouble right now, wouldn’t you?) Have a nice day.(Sure thing, Hoss)

Sincerely,
(And here I thought you were just kidding.)
