Rejection, what a dark and pure evil you are...
It appears the powers that be rubber-stamped my work with the worst possible red coloring, rejected. E-submission, 13 January 2012.
Rejected. esub 1/16.
Problems I know now that I didn't when I submitted:
1. I didn't have the new and interesting idea on page 1. or 2. or even . . .
2. I didn't name the narrator until page 26 (yep, that was a big problem, and I laughed at myself for being so foolish in editing as to have edited that out and not caught it.)
Problems I knew when I submitted:
1. length was over 16k by wordprocessor count, which probably put me over the limit. But that doesn't excuse problems 1 and 2 above.
Onward.

R.
OK - so placing in a previous quarter DOESN'T keep you out of the PIT OF DESPAIR. Automated rejection... 
"R", ah well, the next one is REALLY good (didn't I say that last time?)
Automated rejection.

This is very funny, but I just got a rejection. Darn it, we were one week away from having someone get a rejection and then win!!! The story was about 2K and a rush job (because I'd attended two major workshops back to back and was knee deep in novel writing. I'm not at all surprised. Hope Joni pulls my Q3 though
