Movin' on up

I must be making progress as a writer. I just got my best quality rejection yet. I haven't worked up to getting a full 8.5x11 sheet of paper, but for the first time, I actually got rejected by name and title, rather than just a mass-photocopied form slip stuffed into my SASE. The assistant editor even included why he was rejecting it (apparently, I bored him) and signed it himself. The rejection slip is good enough that I can almost overlook that the manuscript has only been gone for a week.

You don't bore us, when you write.

Just try one or two other publishers.

Good luck,

Nimrod

I'll second that. Keep it up, you'll get there someday. I won't even tell them I fed you mud pies!
