I received a rejection letter yesterday from an editor at Harlequin Enterprises. She gave some useful comments, and told me to submit something else.
I’m in the midst of working on another project now for submission elsewhere, but I do plan on submitting another Christian romance to them again in the near future.
Rejection is a terrible thing, but it can be a good thing, too. Sometimes editors can give you tips on making your work even better. Also, rejection teaches patience!
You know, back in the first five years of my writing career, when I received a rejection, I was usually devestated! However, I believe, over the years, my skin has thickened and rejections don’t hurt as much as they used to! Although, rejections can still leave you feeling a tad bit disappointed!
Any writers (either published or unpublished) reading this? What do you do when you get rejected? How do you feel?
