I have seen files that - without any apparent reason - contain lists over the writer's collection of CDs, magazines, video tapes, flowers, ashtrays, wall-papers, guns, girlfriends, boyfriends, pimples, previously released lists of lists, etc. Anyway, why should I be any worse? Why should I go around and believe that I am special, better than everybody else - just because I have never published any list? Welcome to my personal collection of rejection letters. I have collected them for a long time now, since whenever I am bored I open up the Writer's and Artist's Yearbook 1976 at a random page and mail yet another worthless MS to the address my finger aimlessly falls down on. So far, I have collected these fine letters: TOM DOHERTY ASSOCIATES INC. Dear writer, Thank you for giving us a chance to read your book or proposal. We are sorry that we don't feel it is right for TOM/FORGE at this time. Because the volume of submissions we receive, we are not able to reply individually to each writer, but please be assured that your work received a careful evaluation. We wish you the best luck with your writing career. Sincerely, The Editors RANDOM HOUSE Dear Sir, Thank you for sending us your material.

If your article contained any of these words, do not hesitate to submit it again, after you have changed them into: 1) "The Good Old Days", 2) "Modern Democracy", 3) "Crazy Maniacs", 4) "Security", 5) "Nonsense", 6) "Herd", or 7) "My penis".
