The importance of closureFor those of you who don't know how to deal with those old manuscripts that never went anywhere: buy a gun. Many a Hollywood screenwriter has bemoaned the brutal Darwinism of the movie business, has felt the dull pain of too many pages and too many years of orphaned work unproduced and unrecognized. Few, however, have found the path of catharsis and creativity discovered by Mr. Benedek. (From Brenda) Home

Bah. The most effective way to stop a writer is to just sit on the manuscript. Sit and sit and sit and sit and sit.

"No. Some people have got to be stopped." True dat. But whatever happened to the old fashioned way of stopping someone? And speaking of that, how come they never hoist pianos up the sides of buildings anymore? (From Bookslut) Home

Rejected by Tom RidgeA rejection letter from a reject's reject. That gotta hoit. As Director of the Department of Homeland Security I made it my top priority to protect the American Homeland from another vicious terrorist attack, and I like to think we achieved some success in that regard. But with the beginning of a second term it was time to move on, and so I have. But I still hope to continue my vital work for our country in my new post, which is that of Assistant Short Story Editor for the LaGrange Literary Review. Which is why I'm writing you today. I'm afraid we cannot accept your short story for publication in the Review. Home

This Is Just a Note to Say...Of course, I've never received a rejection letter, so this is a complete abstraction to me. Home
