I used to read ATM like it was one of the Dead Sea Scrolls before I was a real player. I wrote a bunch of stuff for them in the 90's when Richard Bomze was at the helm.
One time I sent in an article and got it back a week later. There were a couple red marks on the first page but the rest of the article was clean. The was a note attached from Bomze. It said, "I started to edit it, but then I realized it was shit."
Funniest comment I ever got, and the only thing I did in my career that was rejected. I've published in multiple magazines, and I even have a chapter in a college text book and never got that comment, but that was Bomze.
I read the Horses to Watch column religiously. I swear they were 50% with plenty of long shots.
