Here's an interesting rejection from an anonymous editor to an anonymous writer that arrived via email today:Dear Writer:
Lots of explaining, positing. Needed more violence/slug/portals/fear/death/fear/fear/fear.
What's urgent? What needs to be told? Are you starting as close to the end as possible? What moves? No thank you.Best,
[Editor on Ritalin]
It's like someone's version of an MFA in less than 7 sentences! (The unfortunate "no thank you" doesn't count.)

Ok, okay...this picture on your blog is by worse the most disgusting picture you've posted yet! ECK!
RQ: So glad you brought it up because this dude is Brazilian and he's famous for being able to do this eye thing. He just strains, slightly, apparently, and they pop out of his head. I couldn't resist.
The publication is NO COLONY, I'm sure. I received a similar rejection recently.
If the wind changes, you'll get stuck like that and then you'll be sorry!
Ha! So is this their version of a form rejection??
how is this a version of an mfa?
explain.
