Just when I think these artists can't get to me, an email comes in that amazes me to no end.
We got a submission from a woman a while back and unfortunately can't do much with her work, so we sent a perfectly succinct rejection letter that read:
Dear [Cray Lady],
Thank you for submitting your artwork to our magazine. We don’t currently have an opening to feature your artwork. But the drawings are most impressive, and if the appropriate occasion arises, we will be in touch.
Sincerely,
[A respectful and competent adult who serves as the editor of this magazine.]
Maybe that was a bit impersonal, but we don't have all day to be buttering up egos.
Apparently, we're also mentally ill. Her response:
Look at my web site I am included in every major museum collection in the country you do not think you can do an article ? What are you thinking [Cray Lady]. Connection
Sent from my iPhone
I have no idea what "connection" means. I also don't think that you can be that bitchy when you seem to lack a grasp of basic punctuation and grammar. I swear, they are TOO MUCH.
