Dear —,

Thank you for sending us —. We appreciate the chance to see your work. Unfortunately, it's not for us. This is not a reflection of your work, but a reflection of how our current issue is unfolding.

It's motivating to realize how much great writing is being sent our way, and disheartening when we must pass on a submission. We're sure your work will find a home elsewhere.

Please consider submitting to us again in the future (but please wait 60 days).

Best,

Gravel Editors
