Dear Alexander: Greetings! Thank you for submitting your writing to Mid-American Review. After careful consideration, we're sorry to report that we have decided not to accept it for publicatiom. However, we did read this submission with more than the casual amount of interest, your work, in some way, distinguishing itself from many of our other submissions. We wish you luck in placing this particular submission in another venue. We also hope that you will consider sending more work our way to consider in the future. Best wishes, Michael C.

Hi Alex,
Thank you for sending “Martin Loman’s Evening Shadow”. I appreciate having had the chance to read it, however while there’s some great writing here, I’ve decided not to include it in The Blue Penny Quarterly. I would like to see more of your work, though.

Dear Alexander,
Thank you for taking the time to submit your work to us.
Unfortunately, we aren’t able to accept this story for publication. Don’t let this get you down, though. There are many possible reasons for turning down a story, and we regularly turn down great work just because it isn’t quite right for us. (Due to time constraints, we’re unable to discuss reasons for rejecting specific stories.)
We’re committed to publishing a variety of fiction from both new and established writers, so please do submit to us again.
Our new anthology, The Maginot Line, is out now on Kindle and iPhone/iPad, priced at just $2.99. It features nine stories by new and emerging authors, and is a great way to find out more about what we do. To get your hands on a copy, head over to Amazon or iTunes.

Dear Alex,
Thank you for your interest in Echo Ink Review.
Although we cannot at this time use “Martin Loman’s Evening Shadow,” we must remind you to not take this as a comment on the quality of your writing. We receive a mass of manuscripts to consider, and for many of them, we are simply the wrong market. That—or the manuscripts “almost” fit us.
Thank you again for your interest in Echo Ink Review. If you have additional material you feel somehow matches our overall style, please send it our way.
Regards,
The Editors,
