We regret that we are unable to use and hence are returning the enclosed manuscript(s). Please excuse any delay in our response. We try to read and report back within ten weeks on all the work we receive, but occasionally the volume of manuscripts sent to our office via mail (and via email from oversease writers) keeps us from meeting this schedule. We also wanted to tell you that if you have not received your entire manuscript(s) back, it's because there wasn't sufficient postage on your SASE to send it all.
We are sorry we cannot comment on work individually because of the demands of our editorial and production duties.
And we thank you for giving us the opportunity to become acquainted with your work.
The Editors.

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to read your work. We regret we are unable to use it. Please excuse any delay in our response. We try to report back to writers within twelve weeks, but on occasion the volume of manuscripts—hard copies and emailed attachments—sent to our office keeps us from meeting this schedule.
Thanks for you intrest in our magazine. We are sorry we cannot comment on work individually because of the demands of our editorial and production duties.
