Will only take submissions for literary fiction that are less than 100,000. So this submission was automatically rejected.

Lee sent me the absolute kindest rejection I could ever ask for--it was more encouraging than some acceptances have been. I'm disappointed not to get to work with them, but I will always treasure their thoughtful response to my work! Thank you Lee :)
