Interestingly was, but there is someone who does not quite agree with the author?
I have no rejection letter to post, but to the unwritten rule diversionary tactic types I can point to that and say a “booyah!” :)
This was too much fun to pass up on :)

I don’t have any handy rejections either–although ask me again in a few months. My one rejection of the past few months was a standard “Sorry you didn’t win” from Writers of the Future. (I have another piece out elsewhere but no word on it.)
I do actually have old rejections from my first year of college. One I particularly remember: I submitted a story (which in retrospect, I think was a naive and somewhat childish work) to Crank! and Brian Cholfin sent me a form rejection telling me not watch so much television, which sent me into a small self-castigating tailspin because I ALREADY didn’t really watch television. (I didn’t have one of my own and the only TV I ever saw was in the lounges in the dorm rooms. I spent more time in the libraries anyway.)
OK, since Mamatas has stood up for our right to post rejection letters, I posted one from him to the same story Sanders rejected. Thanks for the solidarity.
Darnit, I don’t have any rejections handy to post. Please consider me with you in spirit!
