Holy Audacity, Batgirl

[wayfaringwordhack]

I'm getting pieces ready for the June SOD challenge, and I must admit that it makes me queasy to contemplate writing cover letters, not to mention the sheer audacity involved in thinking that someone might actually be interested in my work. I want to aim high at first, but my mind keeps screaming, "Reality check!"

Anyone want to tell me how a cover letter for a short story differs from that of a novel?

Status of projects: 

1. Softer Than a Zephyr - edited and ready
2. Merry Malicious and the Big Fat Dare - busy having the verbiage mowed. Need to trim out another 500 words for the target market to accept it.
3. From Patient File - in the queue
4. Singwolf - in the queue
5. An Unenlightened Spirit -  in the queue
6. The Tree of Patience -  has had preliminary tweaks, but still working on the end.  (Don't even have a proper title)
7. The Oracle's Last Prophecy - probably not going to do anything with this one.  Mostly just wanted to play around and the result isn't anything exceptional.

What Jaime said. Short and sweet.

Short story covers sound heavenly. Maybe I should give up novel writing altogether and just concentrate on shorts.
