Wrote 'mock professional query letter' for class assignment.
'Making up' a novel/writer, in a way that you imagine your future self being that writer and having written the novel seems... [something]. I don't know. I think I would be interested in reading this novel based on my 'sell.'
Sometimes I think, "I want to write things I want to read. Let other people write things I want to read." as one sentence and feel confused. Seems, to make writing decisions, I view myself as trying to write something I want to read.
I felt surprised I seemed to be genuinely interested in the novels 'pitched' by other students in my group. Felt like an 'asshole' for feeling 'surprised.'
I chose Civil Coping Mechanisms because they published a book I had read and liked and a book I feel excited about reading in the future. Other publishers of things I like aren't open to submissions or don't seem as 'currently active' in things I'm interested in as CCM.
