Well, we knew it was coming.
Hopeless wins out.
I wish I could say I’m taking it in stride, but I’m not. In all honesty, I don’t think anyone takes rejection well. No one. It doesn’t feel good.
I don’t feel good.
BUT I’m not letting this stop me. I’m only acknowledging that it exists, because I want other strugglers out there to know that it is NOT unacceptable to feel this way…to say a private little f you to the entity that rejected you.
Tell yourself they don’t know what they turned down…tell yourself they are going to be crying in their beer when you are famous…and then go out there and submit that story again. And if they reject it, just keep going.
This isn’t a race the hare can win…you’ve got to be a turtle, slow and steady and don’t let anything get you down!!!
Chin up, hopeless optimistic (just like me)…we can do this!
Peace and pee on them they don’t know what they passed up,
