This is the rejection letter that Tiffany sent me when the dumb contest people did not send rejection letters and I NEEDED CLOSURE.

((some content altered to protect the eyes of the innocent))
[Name of Rejectee]:
On behalf of the contest coordinators and those in the basement of the HBLL and otherwheres who are plotting against you and your ill attempts at life and writing, we regret to inform you that your submission "Something about Autumn that was probably really good--IN YOUR MIND--but not in what is known as REALITY" to the English Reading Series' Student Contest, "To Autumn" has been rejected. We are not thankful that you submitted this piece to us, and we are, in fact, wondering what you were thinking when you clicked the send button. We send our sincerest regard and regret to all who know you and/or have ever been subjected to your writing in any form. We would like to encourage you to never write anything again in your life. And in fact, we feel the need to encourage you to quit life altogether. You see, what we are looking for in these contests simply does not exist in you anywhere. Now, someone like Whitney Bush deserves fame, prestige, and many many acceptance letters. She is what we want with her beautiful descriptions, touchable images, and red hair. Face it, you are worth nothing. But, don't feel bad; you're almost not the only one. 
Wishing you well in the misery that is your sad life, 
Best friends (who are much harsher than anyone in the world) of The Jacktard in Charge of Sending Rejection Letters

katy, you're okay right? I mean, you know that I, being Tiffany Demings, still want you to keep writing, right? I am not the douche in charge of sending rejection letters nor am I in any way affiliated with the douche's horrible friends. just thought I should clarify for Karen.
