Dear —,<br />
<br />
Thanks for letting us read —. Unfortunately, we've decided this one's not right for us. <br />
<br />
Please take this for what it is: a subjective judgement by a few people who read a lot of short stories and select very few for publication in Barrelhouse. <br />
<br />
We really do appreciate you thinking of us. It's pretty amazing how much great work people send our way, how much great work is being made out there in the world, all the time! It warms the heart. Please keep at it, and consider trying us again.<br />
<br />
Best,<br />
<br />
