Dear D. A.,

After careful review, we have decided to pass on —. We thank you wholeheartedly for trusting us with your work.

We are currently going through some changes (new editors, expanding our team), and due to a temporary over-abundance of submissions and organizational snafus on the editorial side of this operation, we are not able at this time to provide feedback on declined submissions. We are working now to remedy this problem, as engagement with submitters is fundamental to our project here at Common Well. We hope that you submit again--we promise that from here on out we will have a greater capacity to engage critically with all the work that comes across our desks.

Our sincerest apologies.

Godspeed,

Hank, The Editor
