Here’s what I consider an example of a form rejection letter done right: It doesn’t offer uselessly general advice, generic statements about what the agent is or is not looking for, lengthy attempts to justify the rejection, or nonspecific critiques. It’s just a simple “no thank you, try again”, which in my opinion is all a form rejection needs.
Of course, the handwritten “Best Wishes” is nice too.
Don’t forget to vote for the next scene of the month!
Good ‘n’ honest. Ayup.
