- 1. October 5, 2009 2406 Tanglewood Dr Albemarle, NC, 28001 (704) 224-7320 Mrs. Ann Caulkins Head of the Charlotte Observer Charlotte Observer 5555 Main St. Charlotte, NC, 55555 Dear Mrs. Caulkins, This is a letter of application for the position of writer for the Charlotte Observer. I have been a follower of the newspaper since I could read, and would like to become part of the crew. To me, writing is an art. I have written recreationally since third grade, even having the 8-year-old dream of writing a best-selling novel. In seventh grade, I won a school-wide essay contest which was then entered in a state-wide contest. The next year, I won the school-wide again, attaining honorable mention in the state-wide contest. In ninth grade, my teacher offered extra credit to anyone who entered a national essay contest by AMVETS. I entered for the extra credit, and ended up winning an all-expense paid trip to Valley Forge, Pennsylvania. I will be attending said trip this approaching November. If you have any questions or requests, feel free to reach me via the contact information displayed at the top of this letter. I thank you for reading and considering my application. Sincerely, Taylor Neal
