  2. "Nothing" is also what happens if you don't send it in. So your net loss would be, um, nothing. :)

  3. Worst that could happen: Dear 'Author'

    We understand from your cover letter that the collection of words on paper you sent us were intended to be a novel. What an interesting concept. Next time you might try applying some actual talent to the process. We have learned that doing so produces superior results.

    Signed,
    arrogant & sons publishing.

    Best thing
    Having the *next* publisher snatch it up, so you can laugh at arrogant and sons for years to come.
