I received my first article publication rejection letter on Friday. Some of you may doubt my writing abilities given the musings here, but I can actually form coherent thoughts and make them interesting. I am not too broken up about it except for one thing. If you do not want to publish my article that is ok, but do not make up a lame “It’s not in our scope†excuse when it is exactly your scope. It says so on your website: Collection Development. Give me a real reason and do not tell me you “just want to be friends.†I am reformatting the citations and sending it elsewhere. Such is life.
–Jane, if it sucked they should have just said so, nicely
