Dear Mrs. Levien,
I am Clodia Metelli, humble servant of knowledge, truth, and written word. I write to you with a desire to lend my writing and my voice to your important publication.
Although I am a woman of ancient Rome, a place where tradition may limit my talents, my desire to enlighten our society overpowers the expectations for myself and my fellow women writers.
Coming from my established, aristocratic family, I’d like to pride myself in being well-educated. I am proficient in the art of poetry and I can articulate my viewpoints extremely well. I have used my knowledge to inspire women around me for decades to come. I am flush, I am extravagant and made for a position like the ones you offer.
The New York Times is known as “A place to be curious” Your companies mission to seek truth and help people understand the world aligns with my morals and my writing, I believe I could be an important asset to this team dynamic. Please take into account an opportunity for me to interview for this position as a New York Times journalist.
Best Regards,
Clodia Metelli
