Barrett, thank you so much. The tone of the examples that you included is something that my letter does not have also. It’s mature.

Your last message was excellent.

I only have one more question, please.

I’ve been freelance writing for about two months now; I made about $800 last month. I’ve only had a handful of clients thus far. I mean some of them I’ve written 10+ articles for already, but I only have so many. My resume is taking from my past life. I was a computer technician. When I was 19 I was getting paid like $15 per hour to fix computers at a theme park down the street from my home. After that job ended, I was a contracted computer tech who made $100 dollars per hour for just one or two hours of work a few times a month for the same company (and the owners’ auto-shop nearby). So my resume details my life from Subway all the way to the mailing-store which was the last job that I had before I started writing as a profession.  I’ve looked up query letters on Google before (but honestly I could tell that you were the man to talk to for additional information regarding the craigslist field), but looking-up a writer’s resume is a little more difficult.

My original resume is formatted like you would expect a computer tech’s to look, so do I send  a revised version of my actual work history or do I list clients that I’ve worked for?

If it’s clients that I’ve worked for. Then I have no clue as to what the headings my resume should look like. Should the names be first initial and last name? Just the company name?  Do I write the date and service I provided, their contact information? That would mean that I have to get in contact with all of my old writing employers, no?

--Yeah, that’s one question Barrett.

Please respond whenever you get an available opportunity. Do not let me hinder your work or plans for play.
Thank you.

You are kind and helpful, a truly good-hearted individual, as am I—I’ll pay it forward.

Respectfully,

JlB

Also, I should add that the query letter I just described is just for contacting editors who post ads on craigslist or something like that. Of course, if you're sending out articles, you would include a brief summary of the article, your relevant background, and perhaps some clips, depending on the editorial guidelines of the target. You might look up sample query letters on Google, too, because I actually don't have any particular insight into that particular practice.
