Sit Rep

Today I got both the reception postcard and the form rejection from Gordon Van Gelder at F&SF for "Ra-Gho-Zu" in the same mailing. Van Gelder did me the favor of typing my name at the top of the rejection and signing it.

He apparently looked at all of one paragraph then rejected the story right after an office aide sent off the postcard.

Can't say I'm surprised after meeting him at Clarion 2004.

I'll figure out who next I'll submit to.
