Dear Jordan Lee,
I am seeking publication for my science fiction novel, Echoes of Tomorrow, a completed 95,000-word manuscript. Echoes of Tomorrow explores themes of human resilience and the ethical challenges of artificial intelligence, and I believe it will resonate with readers of Martha Wells’ Murderbot Diaries and Becky Chambers’ Wayfarers series.
In Echoes of Tomorrow, Captain Mira Alcott, the lone survivor of humanity’s first failed attempt at interstellar colonization, discovers a signal from a mysterious AI claiming to hold the key to Earth’s survival. As Mira and her crew race across a collapsing galaxy, they must unravel the AI’s true intentions before humanity’s last chance is lost.
I am submitting this to FutureLit Publishing because of your focus on speculative fiction that pushes the boundaries of technology and humanity, as seen in your recent titles like The Quantum Divide. I believe Echoes of Tomorrow aligns well with your catalog and your readers’ interests.
I am an avid science fiction enthusiast and a member of the Galactic Writers Association. My short stories have appeared in Speculative Horizons Magazine and won the 2050 Nebula Award for Best Short Fiction.
The full manuscript is available upon request. I have also attached a synopsis and the first three chapters as per your submission guidelines. Thank you for considering Echoes of Tomorrow. I would be thrilled to discuss how it might contribute to FutureLit Publishing’s outstanding catalog.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
