Dear Joe Bloe
May 5, 2005

Electronic publishing pioneer Raechel Henderson of Eggplant Literary Productions gave me some of my first fiction, nonfiction, and poetry sales (along with quite a few of my first rejections) over five years ago. This week, in her Editor's Journal, she offers a mock rejection letter--the kind she wishes she could send to some of her more testy contributors who might as well put "entitlement" in the subject lines of their queries so she can better see them coming. I have a hard enough time getting Telltale contributors to read the guidelines; I can only imagine the kind of crap she has to deal with day-to-day with all the publications she's put out over the years.

At any rate, funny read.
