Dear capital managers,
Please view the Word document attached below—it is a fictional writing titled, "The Text Messages and The Mirror". Please accept it in your esteemed publication.
Here's my short bio: A very literary individual, johnVC is a 14-year-old Pakistani published author—with several publications in renowned newspapers and magazines, such as Dawn, WriteUnite The News International, and TRT, to name a couple. Especially apt in storytelling, he is based in Islamabad.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely, johnVC Jr.

Dear Mr. VC,
Thank you for the submission. It is, however, too short for TQR. Our minimum word count is 4000 words. If you have something between 4K and 12K words ready for publication, please send it.

Dear Theodore,
Will something like 2.7K words work? I do have another venture, which is relevant to the COVID situation nowadays, too.
Many thanks,

I'm sorry. That is still too short. We're a place for the long form stuff that's hard to place in a market overwhelmingly geared toward max 1000 words.

Dear Theodore,
OK. I have found something very dear to me. It was an 8K venture I wrote 3-4 years back, and I finished it very abruptly - though in a 'fine' manner - and although I first wanted it to remain unpublished, I have, however, thought to send it to your esteemed publication.
I really do hope it will get a place in it, somewhere. It is titled "Full Bloom", and I have split it into a total of FOUR chapters. If there are anymore questions regarding it, please do let me know.
Thanks for your consideration.
Sincerely, johnVC Jr.

Dear JohnVC Jr,
Full Bloom was read and rejected. The reader said the plot lacked resolution. Best of luck with it elsewhere.

Dear sir,
Sorry for the previous email, which got mistakenly sent. Is it possible if I send a combination of ventures, and their themes are relevant? Like, within one Word document. That way, it will also make it more than 4K words.
Sincerely, johnVC Jr.

Dear johnVC Jr,
Not at this time, please. Your drive to succeed and ambition is admirable and if you keep up the good writing practice, your future is boundless. Right now you are in the embryonic stage of your writing career and still must hone it into something that is profoundly yours. I wish you all the best on the long and winding road that you have chosen.
Sincerely, Theodore Q. Rorschalk
