Author Solo Write
You are a writer, preparing to publish your first novel. It has been edited and revised over and over until you hate the sound of the title, but it is done at last. You have sent it sent in to various publishing companies, and you are finally able to take a well earned rest.
But just as you lean back into your favorite chair, you hear a knock at your door. Glancing at the clock, you see that it is two in the morning. You were up all night sending out your manuscript, and you ought to be the only one awake all over town. There should surely be no one at your door.
Trying not to wake up the other inhabitants of the house, You go to the door, preparing to yell at whoever it is. But you see no one. Just an envelope. You pick it up and read.
Dear Author,
You are one of the lucky few chosen to represent the Sunny Meadows Publishing Company as we open. We are a publishing company who specializes in children’s and young adult literature.

For future reference, racoons aren't rodents. They're in the family Pryconidae. I don't mean this as rude and don't want it to be percieved that way, I just dislike inaccuracies. The story's really good.

I'm sorry that I did not post a chapter of the solo write this week, I have been very busy. I will post the next chapter on Sunday.
@Blackfooted Bobcat, thank you for that information about raccoons. I am not extremely knowledgeable about raccoons, so it's great that you told me that. If you ever see any other mistakes, please tell me.
