Subject: Invitation

Hi there.

I’m not sure what the proper protocol is for inviting people who despise me out to coffee (although I’m sure you’ll let me know if there is, in fact, a precedent in this situation).  It’s a bit awkward, but I’ll be very honest: I think it’s time to meet.

It’s clear that there are more than a few misconceptions about me - a divide between who I am and what I project - and, frankly, I’d like your advice.  Why is it you hate me so much? 

Maybe this is a stupid idea, but I figure it can’t be worse than what you already think about me, right?

I’ll answer any question you have, and you can make your own - IRL! I just used that acronym and I sort of hate myself for it! - impressions.

Now, given, I don’t know where you live, and perhaps you don’t want to meet me.  But perhaps one of your readers/commenters does.  And then they could tell all of you exactly how fat/bloated/botoxed I am, really.

So - if you’ll extend this invitation to your readers, I would be much obliged.

I will buy anyone who has the balls to meet me in person in New York at least two beverages of their choice.  Coffee, wine, tequila … blueprint cleanse?  Blueprint cleanse with vodka?  Whatever you want.

I only ask one thing: you give me a chance.

Sincerely, 

JA
