Dear "Bob":
Thank you for sending your query to our latest maildrop. Your manuscript sound interesting, and right up our alley. We would be honored to look over a partial. However, due to the secretive nature of our outfit we can not meet with you, nor can we give out our address.
Instead send us the first 50 pages, one word at a time in the form of an anagram, by taking out a series of classified ads in the Boston Herald (not our real city) entitled "Sofa for sale. $50. Khaki, with a large sweat-stain on the seat." Be sure to deliberately mispell the word that comes before the anagram, so we'll know which one to look for. These ads must be in Courier, double-spaced, with one inch margins or you will be dropped from consideration.
Thank you for your interest and I look forward to unscrambling your manuscript.
Sincerely,
X (Not my real initial... or is it?)
PS: Let us know if anyone wants to buy the sofa because we have one available.
