Hi all,
I recently submitted a short story to a well-known genre magazine. The editor sent me a personalized rejection. He/she liked the premise and the relationship between the two main characters. He/she didn't like the second half as much, and didn't feel won over by the story. The editor finished with, "I hope you'll keep us in mind in the future."
I'm not too satisfied with the second half myself. Should I offer revisions, or just move on? I don't want to jeopardize any potential future relationship. There's no policy stated on the website about revisions.
Thanks everyone!
