That rip of hurt....

Dear Astin,

Thank you for giving Samhain Publishing the opportunity to review your work,
PUT YOUR DREAMS AWAY, for possible publication. Your premise was
interesting, but ultimately neither your storyline nor your characters
engaged me enough to warrant the offer of a contract.

We appreciate your submission to Samhain Publishing and wish you good luck
with all your writing endeavors in the future.

Regards,
Teri Smith

*sighh*Well, at least it actually got through after I tried three times....besides, it seems like they didn't pay much attention...the title's wrong. I just noticed that. It should be Put Away Your Dreams grrr. That's probably the coldest rejection I've gotten, it just sounds so...*shiver*

Ouch. Cold burn. If... that makes sense. >_>

Were they online publishing?

believe they're primarly an e-publisher, yes.
