Just got my first, very kind, rejection from an agent.
No real comments on the letter or premise itself, just that the agent didn’t think they were the right agent for my book.
Oh well.
Part of the business. It does kind of make me feel more like a writer now that I’ve felt the first bitter sting of rejection. Wow, I’ll never get published if I keep writing cliches like that!
So, now my new goal is to send out one new query for every rejection I get in! Off to send one right now!
A positive attitude is important and you’ve got that. Good luck!
Good luck. I’ve collected a few rejections so far. Not fun, but at least it shows we’re taking steps to be successful writers.
