  A2. Sample 'Profile & Cover Letter Description'
  
  
  Hello,
  
  I'm thoroughly enjoying reading Thoreau's 'Walden', and am looking to meet someone with whom I may closely read and then discuss this book via phone or voip. I bring to this effort: 1.) a desire to read carefully (generally 5-10 hours reading, thought and preparation for each hour of discussion); and 2.) my commitment to thinking about possible alternative futures.
  
  I look forward to speaking with you.
  
  Sincerely,
  
  ~Scott
