About six years ago I received a rejection notice with one of those coveted hand-scribbled notes from the editor, which said: "Great idea, but the tone is off. Try again?" Or something like that.
I now wish to submit a new story to that magazine, which still has the same editor. Should I make reference to this earlier note ("At your suggestion I'm belatedly trying again," or somesuch quick phrase), or just forget about it?
