Dear _________,
Thank you for submitting your story “Title” to Okay Donkey and for your kind words. While there's a lot to admire here, we ultimately decided that this piece isn’t quite the right fit for us. It doesn't quite have the kind of strong narrative we’re looking for. We do however like your writing and want to encourage you to keep submitting. Thanks again for think of us and sending your work to Okay Donkey.
Sincerely,
The Editors Eric and Genevieve
