Can you let me know what kind of information you put on the cover letter/email to the publishers? As I am going to submit some work for the first time, but I'm not sure what information to include? do you go into detail about who you are? or information about the illustrations? Great website Heather, I love your illustrations.

Hi Michael, Thanks for your comment on my blog regarding submitting writing to greeting card publishers. I used to receive verse submissions often from writers, it's a bit of a simpler process than submitting artwork you'll be glad to hear! You can either submit via email a PDF / Word document of your verses via email, or just print out your verses and mail to the greeting card publisher. The same rules apply as far as including your contact information on every page of your submission... wouldn't want your verses to get lost! You can also include your rate per verse, although publishers often already have a set rate for that which varies depending on the publisher. Be sure to put your (c) copyright and your name on each page, to protect your work as well. Hope this helps Michael, good luck!
