This is going to be the section where readers send in their successful pitch letters, where they submitted an idea to a magazine and the editors went for it and they got the job. However I don't have any right now so this is a TK.

The Home Run Pitch Letter from TK to TK

Dear Editor:

Freelancer

Our Freelancer breaks it down for us:

"The reason why I think this letter worked is because I kept it succinct and really played up the awesomeness of the concept and the cuteness of the editor. Also, the editor is my cousin. I ended up writing a 100,000 word piece for the magazine and got $500,000 for it."

Have you saved a pitch letter that did the job by getting you the job? Send it in, along with an explanation of why you think it worked.
