And may all your rejection letters be kind

Some rejection letters are helpful. One led me to revise a story that was later published. This wasn't too hard to take:

Subject: Regarding your submission
Ms. Gueguen--Firstly, let me thank you for your amazing patience with us and this project. We have been trying for a very long time to find quality stories like yours for this anthology. Unfortunately, we were unsuccessful and are sadly going to have to put this project away indefinitely. I am so sorry to have kept you waiting so long and urge you to try to get this wonderful story in other publications. Sincerely, Tamela J. Ritter
