Dear [writer's name]

Thank you for sending your work to Pedestal Magazine. We navigated a flood of poems during this cycle and regret that we can't offer a home to many stellar pieces. It’s especially difficult to decline poems by poets whose work we admire. That said, after careful consideration, we’ve decided to pass on your current submission. We certainly hope that you will send other work to us in the future.

Best, The Editors Pedestal Magazine
