I know I can still do the work. In fact I take advantage of the free MS Word and MS Excel update training provided at gcflearnfree.org. Any advice you could give in writing a cover letter even though I have this gap would be greatly appreciated. Also, do you use a greeting in your cover letters or just notate the job post information. Sincerely, Angelia Cranford (Angie) Hi Nelson,

Um... I feel as if I owe you a commission....um...I'm resisting that urge...um. Oh, by the way- I used your method of getting partial payments for a fixed price job and it worked great.

Too often we get caught up in fearing the numbers. The number of applicants and the low numbers on other bids. It's nice to know that there are realistic buyers out there and that they can be reached. Thanks Nelson, I needed to hear this.
