Comments on: OMG: It’s Not Actually a Rejection! http://bloglily.com/2008/09/19/omg-its-not-actually-a-rejection/ "it must give pleasure" -- Wallace Stevens Thu, 06 Oct 2011 01:38:46 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Helen http://bloglily.com/2008/09/19/omg-its-not-actually-a-rejection/#comment-22505 Wed, 05 Nov 2008 06:34:41 +0000 http://bloglily.wordpress.com/?p=712#comment-22505 This is brilliant! I’m looking forward to reading The Secret War when it hits the shelves.

Heh heh, I get a lot of rejections too! I’ve got a rejection post brewing, am just waiting for the right time, but, oddly enough, it’s a really positive one. A few weeks ago I received the best rejection I’ve ever had… does that make any sense?

Rhiann — You’re back! I’m so glad you’re on the airwaves. It wasn’t the same without you. And thank you for that thought.

Gentle Reader, It was pretty exciting. I mean, I know you’re not supposed to care too much about what other people think of your work, but I find that very difficult to pull off.

Oh Ella, I feel like I’ve just received that. xoxo

Hello and welcome I, Good luck with that book! I’d love to hear how it goes.

Sandi — Have I mentioned before that I ADORE YOU? I do.

I can’t wait to read it. It’s much easier to publish a book than to win a contest, or even be a finalist in a contest… just a matter of time!

Being in the Top Seven is already a big achievement. Actually, this is my first time on your site. I was just passing through as I was introducing WordPress to someone. But the “rejection” word in your title attracted my attention. I myself had lots of rejections in writing and in other aspects of life and it’s always a eureka moment when I read of someone overcoming challenges and eventually achieving something, not by some special powers, but by just holding on.
More blessings to you.

Besides, you can now claim two very very nice credits on all future submissions of whatever and all.
