From Ocean Stories, 456 days: "Thank you for your patience while we sorted through the shortlist. "X" is a great story and I loved the dialogue and the way the characters play off one another. Still, I'm sorry to say that in the end, we've decided to pass on this one. The story truly was enjoyable, it simply did not fit with our final needs.
I do sincerely hope you are able to place "X" elsewhere and I hope that you will submit to us again in the future."
