 Thank you for sending us '[title].' Unfortunately, we decided not to send it to the next round of consideration. We understand that the last thing you need during these difficult times is more bad news. Also, we at Matter Press worry that the quick 'decline' might feel a bit 'harsh' to writers. That certainly isn't the intention of the fast turnaround time and is no indication at all of the interest in your work. As I'm sure you know, so much of the submission process is about finding that right match, and that's what we hope for your submission: that it finds its perfect home.
-Thanks again. Best of luck with 'Observations at the Big Chain Bookstore.'
