Great News!
Today I received the best rejection letter ever! OK, so it's a rejection letter, how great can it be? But just listen:
From: The Greensboro Review (on very important looking letter head)
To: Me ^^
Dear Christy,
Thanks for sending your story, "The Water Myth," to The Greensboro Review. We regret that we are unable to use it in our next issue, but you should be pleased to know that it finished in our top fifty of about five hundred submissions.
We are glad to have had the opportunity to read and spend time with your piece, and we hope that you will send us more of your work. The submission deadline for our Spring 2005 issue is September 15.
Thank you for considering The Greensboro Review, and best wishes.
Sincerely,
(not one, but two signatures!)
Fiction Editor and Assistant Fiction Editor
Woot! I'm framing this letter!
