Turned Down…

In my experience writer’s get rejected on a fairly regular basis (or maybe its just me   ). I don’t make it a habit of publishing my rejection e-mails but I liked the way Lark News (a Christian satire e-zine) rejected a piece I had submitted satirizing Philip Yancey (I am a huge PY fan BTW – see WAAAAYY down in Blog somewhere..):
 
Pete, we’re going to pass on this idea, but we wish to congratulate you for being the first person in the history of anything, to our knowledge, to satirize Philip Yancey. Also, please accept our apologies for taking so long to respond. We like to consider and respond to each submission personally, and it takes a while to get through the heap.

Oh, you might enjoy a sneak peek of our upcoming major-release book, A Field Guide to Evangelicals and Their Habitat. See:

Thanks much for letting us see Disco Phil.

    Ahh Pete you\’re an awesome writer! Don\’t take rejections to seriously, maybe they aren\’t ready for your superb talent, and are blown away by your spectacular writing pieces…the youth will still like you regardless if you can write good or not!
