AUTHORS, AND OTHERS,

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN REJECTED?

GET YOUR REJECTION LETTERS PUBLISHED!

A message from Bill Shapiro:

O, The Oprah Magazine called Other People's Love Letters "addictive," Esquire described it as "painfully entertaining." Now you can be a part of the follow-up book.

Other People's Rejection Letters will feature reproductions of all kinds of rejection letters. Whether typed form letters or handwritten in a fit of rage, whether sent by text message, email, or scrawled in crayon, any kind of rejection is fair game: You didn't get the job or the loan or the membership; you're not the right fit for our dentistry school; you're my son but I never want to see you again; your restaurant failed its health inspection; your parole has been denied; we had a good time together but you cheated on me so this is goodbye.

Don't worry: I can digitally black-out any last names so that you won't be identifiable So if you have a rejection letter or two tucked back there in the closet (or if you've written any) that you'd be willing to share, now's your chance to be part of the book.

You can send them to mailto:%201000rejectionletters@gmail.com.

And if you have any questions, I'll answer them right away.

Thanks for considering this, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Bill Shapiro

Editor of Other People’s Love Letters
