Attn: Ellen (About)
It feels cheesy writing postcards asking/pleading/whatever-ing for help from a person I don’t know. Really it’s awkward asking a favor of anyone. But (and this is to console myself) – I’m sure people have helped me in the past without my asking for it, and people will again in the future. I enjoy being able to help people when I can (most of the time) and so … well, like I said … this paragraph is to console myself. Rambling makes me feel less like a cheese-ball?

This idea has been in my head for a long while. I like the idea – so of course I was never happy with any approach I tried. But doing this has stayed on my to-do list and I finally decided to just go for it.
From day one of the blog a ‘joke’ I’ve had is the hope that an intern of Ellen’s will discover my blog, and convince Ellen to give it a chance. Then, because she’s super kind, she’ll give me a chance and introduce me to a literary agent (it worked for this 9 year old who’s more socially suave than I am, so why not for me?).
Anyhow – it’s a lovely thought to have that this will all work out in the end. And I can’t delude myself without feeding my delusions with new nonsense on the blog.
