Thanks for the advice! For those asking, my thought process was this: since only about 1% of letters to the editor are published (NY times publishes 10/day, and the website says they receive more than 1000 daily submissions) I thought it would demonstrate my writing ability and interest in constructive dialogue. I see now I was mistaken. I already have an op-ed in the barrel, so we’ll try my luck with that
