(Not Another) Form
Rejection Letter
By Robyn
Schneider
Dear (hackneyed, unoriginal) author,
I’m sorry, but I’ll have to pass on your
Manuscript (reading it was a bother).
In the future, I’d love to see some more
Of your writing. Today’s book market is
Tough (you don’t have what it takes); I’m afraid
It’s not easy to break into this biz
(With writing like yours, you’d never get paid).
It is quite rare that I take on a new
Client these days, and I don’t think we fit--
There’s a better agent out there for you,
So best of luck (sorry you write like shit)!
Thank you so much for thinking of me.
Warmest regards, Out of Reach Agency.
