To The Editor... 1 Year, 7 Months ago Karma: 0  
Wow, any editors out there every receive anything like this?

You self-righteous asshole! How dare you reject my poems in such a pompous and dismissive manner. Yeah, that’s right . . . I called you an ASSHOLE and what’re you going to do about it? You’re just mad because I write better than you could ever hope to. . . and yeah, I drink, so what? I can drink you under the table. One day, I’m going to be a big deal in the literary world and you’re going to be sorry you rejected me. In fact, you’re going to beg me to submit to your sorry rag and I’m going to tell you to go fuck yourself.

That's pretty intense — while I may have thought of writing something like this to an editor in the past, I would never do it.

Anyway -- I've posted a _link_ to this site in the directory. Pretty decent blog and right on topic — the writer is a small press editor themselves!

At first I thought maybe you were going to ask us for a sanity check before you mailed off that response yourself...

I hesitate adding another blog to my bloglines, but perhaps I'll try it for a few weeks and see. I could eliminate some of the ones that I skip over more and more.
