Hi Paul,
Thanks so much for getting back. I can imagine how busy you are and I really appreciate you taking the time to review the proposal.
I will get you a sample cahpter in the next few weeks. For this exercise, I assume any one will do. I also wanted to let you know that I am expanding the audience to include all entertainment professionals. Writers, Directors, Producers and Would-Be Studio Executives would benifit from this approach just as much as actors.
Regarding your concern about the proposal being a little confusing, it was my intent to weave in anticdotal material with the "how to" approach to the business. But if you feel that is not the right concept, would you have any thoughts as to how to make it less confusing? You make a great point and I would hate to miss this opportunity.
Thanks again for your time and your offer to look at a sample chapter. I really hope its something that strikes a cord with you and that we might get a chance to work together on this project.
Happy Holidays!

Dear Patrick,
I am sorry for my long delay in responding. Thanksgiving and general end-of-calendar business have been pressing and, while I read your proposal immediate, I am only now getting a chance to write. It certainly sounds like you have a good story to tell. Do you have any of the sample chapters written already? The proposal seems to be somewhere in between a memoir and an educational offering and my fear is that sort of creativity confuses publishers.
I would be happy to read some additional material if it is already prepared.
Best,
Paul
I have attached a cover letter and a proposal. Thanks again for taking a look and have a wonderful Thanksgiving
