Dear [name],

Your manuscript has received a careful reading, but we have decided against holding it for our second round of deliberations. Thank you, though, for giving the BPJ the opportunity to consider it. Always pleased to see your work. In this set I particularly admired "[title 1]" for its exploration of a mood, but also the sketches "[title 2]" and "[title 3]"

Sincerely,

[Co-editor]
