Two (that I know of so far) well regarded publishers accept unsolicited submissions (novels, literary). One of them wants its submission addressed to "Manuscript Submissions." My question is this, in this case is it okay to address your cover letter (which they also relquest along with 30 sample pages) to "Dear Sir or Madam"? Usually this is a big no-no but in this case (and I asked to the lady when I spoke to her on the phone if I should address my submission to anyone in particular) am I justified in doing so? Thanks.
