Dear Hiring Manager,
I hope you're well!
I would like to be considered for the 'Book Writing' position you have advertised on freelancer.com.
My name is Jai Rehal, I am a British National who has been living in Bangkok Thailand for the past year.
I achieved a First Class Honours Degree in Film Studies and Screenwriting. In addition to this, I work as an English teacher so if you're looking for an enthusiastic writer with excellent proficiency in English writing then I feel I could be a good match for this project.
If you have read this far you must be curious to check out my Freelance profile and see that there's not much on there. You're right, there isn't.
If it is okay with you, could I write a trial piece on something? If you like my work, we can talk further. If not, then hey, no hard feelings.
How does this sound to you?
I look forward to your reply,
Yours sincerely,
Jai Rehal.
Best.
