    Ouch! that wording is tragic. There's no way an editor can not realize how rude that comes off. That must be the lowest tier form rejection. The kind you give out when you don't want to hear from the author ever again.

  2. Yeah when I received that rejection it was like a punch in the stomach. Needless to say, I will never query this dude again.

  3. I'm pretty sure I have at least one rejection from this agency as well, but I haven't pulled it out of my pile for posting yet.

  4. I was insulted by that rejection letter as well. Ugh.
