Cover Letters Make A Lasting ImpressionCover letters are rooted in first impressions. By design, it's the first place your eye goes when you open a package or a manuscript or an email. What type of impression are you making through your letter? It is important that your words be professional yet also stand out from the hundreds of other cover letters. Also you want to make sure that you give a good impression rather than a negative impression. As an editor, I've discovered I recall the negative impressions as well as the positive ones from cover letters. For example, if the letter is printed on colored paper like red, I will remember it for many years but not in a positive fashion.
