Dr. Watson-

I understand that you're looking for someone to assist in researching your upcoming book on New York history, and I'd like to be considered. My work has appeared in dozens of publications including Vanity Fair, Skeptic, The Huffington Post, McSweeney's, The Fortean Times (London), National Lampoon, and The Onion A.V. Club, as well as a variety of city guides and other things of more relevance to this particular projects, including about 30,000 words of material for a book on American cities by Thomas Riggs & Company. My first book, Flock of Dodos: Behind Modern Creationism, Intelligent Design, and the Easter Bunny, was released in 2007 to praise from Alan Dershowitz of Harvard Law School, Rolling Stone, and other sources.

I'm looking for another project to work on while I do some other pro bono work for a PAC and work on my second book, so I'd be very interested in speaking to you further about serving you as a researcher.

Thanks,
