The Wind From My Sails

Dear Raquel,

Thank you for your recent submission to the Apple Valley Review. I'm sorry to let you know that your short story, "On a Blue Day," was not accepted for publication.

However, this is a particularly subjective business, and I always appreciate the opportunity to read new work. Please feel free to submit again in the future, and thanks again for thinking of us.

Best wishes,
Leah
