Carol,

Thanks for the info!  I actually do get lots of responses from that
letter.  When I send a letter to Fine Gardening or other similar
magazine I personalize it and do include the story idea.

This letter, as you mentioned, was made for a vast number of markets,
specifically online markets.  I do try to get regular work with a
publication once I start with them and usually do.

I have been talking to the correct editors and you may be right about
this taking a few weeks once I send my idea in.  That's basically what I
was wondering about.  They seemed to respond right away to the letter
asking me for my ideas but once I sent them the ideas in another letter
I didn't get a response.

I try to offer no less than two ideas and sometimes three or four.  When
you mentioned looking at the way someone writes, this could be an issue
with my response rate also.  When I send a story idea I leave it pretty
vague because I've had ideas "stolen."  I avoid details as much as
possible until I have the contract.

I may need to rethink this.

Thanks again!
Sheri
