Serendipitous, indeed. Pretty cool.

Sorry about that. Guess I’m just full of surprises.

When I first saw the thumbnail – I thought it was a foam head on some new coffee drink! Thanks for freaking me out (just a bit), Tom!

Comment on Positive Rejections by Tom Ipri

Thanks Valerie.

I feel your pain, but I would assume it’s difficult for a magazine to know when a piece could be right for them. They may not know the tone of an issue until they get submissions for it. I agree it would be nice for them to hold on to something if they knew it would be for their next issue, but I’d rather have my work back to submit elsewhere than have someone holding on to it indefinitely.

Good luck placing your work.

Congratulations on landing your first publication. These rejections are rather informative, but I’ve always taken issue with the phrase, “not right for us at this time.” I mean, if that’s the case, can’t they just hang onto it until it is right for them?

Thanks for creating that list. It was just the type of thing I was looking for to inspire my reading for 2013. I did note that about Empire State and plan on reading it first. I didn’t add it to the list because I was focusing on new publications.
