Cover letter:
Dear Ma’am/Sir,
Namaste (Greetings)!
I am deeply obliged and truly honored to be able to write all the way INDIA!
My name is Ms Nilanjana Sanyal and I’m a Disabled Writer and a “Public Peace Prize” Laureate, 2018, Canada wishing to be considered for the “2022 SIGMA AWARDS” with my Portfolio (“The Unstoppable Show” of CARRIE ANN MITCHELL and an “Audio From David Banes”).
My Portfolio was Published in the year 2020 (Earliest Date: 15 January, 2020).
I AM SURE YOU WOULD NOT LET THIS FACTOR JEOPARDISE MY APPLICATION. I’m very well-read and highly accomplished with a unique sense of commitment and as much willingness to learn about data journalism.
I’m sure you would appreciate that DATA JOURNALISM, in fact, JOURNALISM ITSELF HAS MANY VAGUE DEMARCATION LINES. IT IS, FOR INSTANCE, POSSIBLE FOR A WRITER AND/OR FREELANCE BLOGGER/PODCASTER TO EMPLOY DATA/INFOGRAPHICS IN HIS/HER WORK!
I must add here that this would be a tremendous opportunity for me. This is because I cannot, as both a Disabled” and a “Mobility-Restricted” Writer afford to take my message across to the rest of the world (that would be a dream fulfilled). I’d simply love to participate!
I’m ambitious and and sometimes wish I could take my message to a global audience – of LIVING A LIFE OF MEANING & PURPOSE DESPITE DISABILITY/CHRONIC ILLNESS; of The Progress of Nations; of the SDGs; of Freedom from Racism and Human Bondage; of The Emancipation of women and men; of The Empowerment of Children and Young People Worldwide; of Universal Love & Tolerance & Compassion and Humanitarianism and Peace and Non – Violence and The New World That Is Emerging.
I have been much inspired by the lives & work of some of the world’s greatest thinkers, educationists, writers and journalists, many of whom have been terminally ill/disabled themselves. Some of their greatest works have emerged out of their disabilities/illnesses. “It is the the courage and the resilience” and “the never-will-be-defeated” spirit that is truly motivational.
I’m a Disabled Person with overseas travel restrictions. I wouldn’t be able to travel overseas. It is the immense pain and suffering I have undergone and continue to undergo that continues to remain my ultimate inspiration.
Please do write should you have any further clarifications or need any further information.
Many thanks once again for indeed your very kind understanding. I look forward to your guidance and to hearing from you soon!
Much gratitude & solidarity,
Nilanjana Sanyal, Ms
