We Musn’t Complain

My last post was about a soul-crushing, football-in-groin rejection. It can probably be construed as a complaint about publishing and the sorry state of things. It wasn’t meant to be. I feel sharing rejections helps other writers feel less lonely.

Yes, it’s hard to get true stories, told well, about regular people. It’s hard to publish if you don’t have the requisite platform of a former TV reality star or a Kardashian. It means I have to be better, work harder.

All we can do is keep grinding remembering all the while that ‘no’ is one step closer to ‘yes.’
