Thank you for submitting to Nimrod International Journal.

Though we will not be publishing this manuscript at this time, we admire the quality of your work and hope that you will submit again.

You can be assured that your work was read by dedicated editors who wish that they could publish all the sincere and well-crafted work that is submitted to Nimrod. We are always in the process of reading—with care and consideration—the many general submissions which arrive at our door; works submitted for our thematic issues; and those specifically submitted for the annual Nimrod Literary Awards. Unfortunately, limitations of space and funds dictate rigorous selectivity; two issues fill up very quickly when we have so many quality submissions each year.

Once again, however, please believe us when we say we would enjoy reading your work in the future. This is not a come-on or an idle gesture. Only a few of the writers who submit their work to Nimrod receive this encouragement, and we hope that you will take advantage of it and subit to us again, either as a general submission, for one of our special theme issues, or for the Nimrod Literary Awards.

Sincerely yours,
