Dear Ms. Engels,

Please find enclosed my short story “Blackwater Cove.”

I am in the creative writing program at Silver Springs Fine Arts Academy. I received the Amira Hamat Short Fiction award in 2016 for a previous writing. I am a longtime fan of Litbright Magazine and I am hopeful that you will find my story to be a good fit for your publication.

This story is a simultaneous submission. I shall immediately withdraw it if it is accepted elsewhere.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,

Kara Woodridge
