I'll get straight to the point: you should hire me for your staff writer position!

"Why?" you ask. Well, I'll tell you why. My two favorite things in the world are makeup and writing. Check out makeuptothemax.blogspot.com to see my work (just skip the "Prom Night" photos, thanks :p). Also, I did the makeup for two of my friends who just got married last year. No, not to each other! Not that there's anything wrong with that . . . LOL!

I can see why you are advertising for a writer—there is NOTHING in your magazine about makeup at all! It's a wonder that you're still in print. I don't think you'll last long with filler articles about outer space.

Hire me, and I'll give your magazine the "make over" it desperately needs!
