A Lovely Note

I received an email from a company that recently posted a lead on this blog. She said the resumes she received from the post were superb, and she's sharing the blog info with her colleagues (who also hire writers, I presume). I thought you guys might like to know what kind of great impression you were making. :D

Special education gig

Hi all...my colleague is looking for a special education teacher/specialist who can also write. See the brief detail below. If you are interested in learning more or are interested in the gig, please contact Elena directly. You can mention that I (Michele Israel) posted.

Hi Michele,

I hope this finds you well.

I have a “live” job in-hand. It involves writing 400-450 pages of double-spaced content for a Praxis II Exceptional Education test prep book.

Note that the writer would only need to write Chs 2-6. I can provide more detailed information to anyone who’s interested.

The schedule is tight: I need a sample chapter by next Thursday (10/20), and the entire draft would be due by Friday, 11/11. I can offer $2000 for the work.

Thanks!

Elena
