Well said. I’m at this stage now. Receiving rejections. It hurts. And it may throw me off the path for a while. But I keep coming back. To write. To write more. To finish what I’ve started. I comfort myself with the thought that the after I receive 100 rejections I’ll be cured. It’s like breaking a curse. Or after I finish this story, I’ll stop. No luck there yet. The stories keep coming, so are the rejections.
Great post, exactly what I needed to hear. Today's rejection was like a punch in the stomach (I had high hopes), but I can't not write. I'll keep going because rejection isn't failure - failure is giving up.
Inspiring words to read when I’m in that weird phase between writing and not writing

I'll be including this in my monthly list of great arts reads. Love it!
