The Rejection Letter Finally Comes

August 18, 2005
Dear Ern,

Thank you for your submission. I'm sorry to say that I am passing on the story. While "...Mariano Torres" had much merit, it is not the type of story I'm looking for. The story could also use some polishing up for grammar and choice of words, and the latter bits could use revision.

I hope this doesn't discourage you. As writers, we all have to keep on trying and writing. I honestly think that you have great potential. I'd be doing you a terrible disservice if I told you otherwise. I look forward to reading more from your imagination in the future.

Thanks and regards,
Dean Francis Alfar
