01.1 Letters of No

Rejection hurts, but it can also be empowering. Between 2000 and 2007, French artist Julien Prévieux sent a thousand letters of demotivation to jobs he didn’t feel like doing, explaining the reasons for his refusals.There are at least a thousand things to be angry about – write someone or something a letter to tell them how you feel, but send it to us instead.
