Rejection notes – no.18 in a series

And this is from a first-rate magazine.

Dear Edoardo Albert,

Thank you for your submission to [...]. I thought your story had its strong points, including an interesting concept, but ultimately I didn’t think this was quite right for us. The voice, here, didn’t seem to be what we’re looking for: something lyrical, while being understated and emotive. I’m going to have to pass on this, but I wish you the best of luck placing your story elsewhere.

Best,
