Quick Fiction Rejection

Posted on 6:50 AM by humpty
Jennifer Pieroni is a smart, perky editor. I like her little magazine, and I even like her rejection. Or maybe I'm just in a good mood today:
With hundreds of literary magazines to choose from, we're truly honored that you selected Quick Fiction! We're sorry to say, however, that we were not able to place your work in this issue. We wish you the best in placing it elsewhere. Regards, Jennifer Pieroni, Editor in Chief
