REJECTED!!

Well, my story "Love Immortal" was rejected by the magazine editor I had submitted it too. I wasn't expecting it to be accepted, but actually getting the rejection letter after all this time really stung inside. Ugh - don't like this feeling. So, today has been a bum day for me, even here at work. I've received some great encouragement from the gals at CNYRW though, which has been nice. It's tough going through rejection - don't think I've felt that since high school (and even then I don't remember what it might have been!!).
Oh well - move on and get over it right? I'm working on another story that I like much better than I did that one, so maybe this will turn out. We'll see.

Rejections suck! I really did love the story and I think with a few tweaks it can be awesome! You could even change the names and try somewhere else...
The upside is you are not alone in the rejection pool.

Love ya.
