Best Rejection Letter EVER!!
I want to preface this by saying that 2005 Writer's Market does list this publisher as "needing" horror. So I did do my research.
This is SO much more what I was looking for:
Re: A Stabbing for Sadie
Thank you for considering *publisher name*. Your outstanding novel, however, is too graphic and descriptive for our standards. We don't publish horror stories, no matter how good they are.
Please, remember us when you have a work out of this range.
Good luck in your creative enterprises.
And then it is signed in actual script on real live letter head.
Even though it is another rejection, I feel very encouraged by this.
