Hello, my name is Ariana Gordon and I'm the assistant editor of Sister 2 Sister magazine in the DC tri-state area. We are a national magazine that focuses on lifestyle and celebrity writing. As a part of our lifestyle aspect, we have a section called "About Cars," which can cover anything from car revues to what you can tell about a person's personality from the car that they drive. We love to keep things fun and imaginative and we are seeking some freelancers who would be available each month to infuse our car column with that same creative style. I'm unsure as to whether this is the correct medium to use to get in touch with those writers, but if so, I would love to hear from you and see what you can do! If possible, please shoot me back a resume with your resume, cover letter and a couple of published clips. Hope to hear from some fun-loving freelancers soon!

Thanks a bunch,

Ariana Gordon
