Dear first-name, We're sorry to say we didn’t find something in this particular submission to fit just right for our forthcoming issue. This is not a reflection on the quality of your writing. Our tastes, admittedly, are quirky. Thanks so much for your kind support and for thinking of us at The American Journal of Poetry. Very kind wishes—Robert Nazarene, founding editor & James Wilson, senior editor

Somewhere in between?

Dear <name>, I’m sorry I didn’t find something here to fit just right for us. I wish I had. It’s always “hit & miss”, merely the editor’s opinion for his review—and importantly, no reflection on the quality of your work. Thank you very much for your kind support. My best to you for great success in all your creative writing endeavors.

Kind regards— Robert Nazarene, editor
