[Athen] [EXTERNAL] athen-list Digest, Vol 198, Issue 1

[Tiffany Kennell]

Hi Justin,

That is my normal course of action. I've received rejections before, it was
the tone of the rejection that got me, and the reason I want to send a dear
colleague letter. The book is for a ceramic class:

Title: Clay: A Studio Handbook

Author: Pitelka

Edition: 2nd/2016

ISBN: 9781574983265
Thank you for your response.

Kind regards,
