I needed to see this today. It was exactly the sort of bitch-slap I
needed to get me back behind my writing desk and actually
submitting things again rather than whining about how I'll never be
a real writer because I can't take rejection.
Even though I actually work with editors and should in fact know
better, it was so important for me to be reminded that I'm not
personally being rejected, my work is (and if it's at all good, it
won't be rejected forever). I think I'm going to go write "they
don't hate you, they're just doing their jobs" in Sharpie on my
monitor so I never forget again.
So thanks for that.
