Keep in mind that your cover letter is, in essence, a writing sample. Put time and effort into personalizing each letter you send out with your resume, and be sure it has no grammatical errors.
It is often helpful to assemble a book of writing samples, for potential employers to see the high quality of writing/editing of which you are capable. Include work which reflect your writing ability, such as essays or research papers, articles you've written for the school paper, or even significant emails.
