Do rejections sharpen or dull? It’s June and I’ve only submitted to three places. I received my third rejection today. It used to really throw me for a loop. I’d feel like a failure. Sometimes, I would try to rework the piece but most of the time I’d simply not go back to it. It is only recently that I’d even thought of the idea of finding another place to submit it to. Today though, I decided that maybe it is sign that perhaps I should not be focused on submitting but working on my writing project and reading. Period.
