I think your presentation is terrific. The only reason I bothered with alterations is that I'm such a poor liar I'm liable to get the lies mixed up. So send it the way you have it if you wish.
All I have in income is my Social Security. Out of that I have to save enough for fare to the States twice a year. Only allowed to live here six months on a tourist permit. And of course living in New York is outrageous. So the closer together you can make the meetings with the producer the cheaper it will be for me.
Sent you an outline and an article for your magazine. Must have been a month ago. Did you get them?
Thanks a Million for all your effort.
Yours for a Better World
Slim

P.S. Will stop this A.M. and look at {am} Heritage. Just got yours yesterday.
