Same here. Why wouldn't you? Especially since by doing that you will be cutting out at least 85% of agents, if not more, simply because they want an e-mail query. Sorry, there just doesn't seem to be a good reason to do that.

Because I am so much a Luddite and fearful of things that involve bits and bytes -- (more than) a little self-contradictory, I'll admit, since I know a good enough deal about them. Not enough to build a better mouse app

but enough that I know what email is and how to use it.
I also feel the need to contribute to the good old USPS rather than ISPs as much as I can. Must be 'cause I'm a Beatles fan and see the benefit to combining "Paperback Writer" with "Please, Mr. Postman."
Oh, yeah, wait a minute, Mr. Postman,
Can you read my book, it took me years to write, will you take a look?
Mr. Postman, look at me,
Is that a letter from my agent I see,
If you really like it you can have the rights,
It could make a million for you overnight.
So many days you passed me by
See the tear standing in my eye
You didn't stop to make me feel better
By leaving me a card or a letter...
Needs work, but IMHO it's better than "Mr. Roboto Killed the Radio Star."
