One More Rejection
by Carmen Ferreiro-Esteban
Another rejection has come my way.
It should get easier each time, but somehow it doesn’t. So I was glad to find this quote from the French writer André Maurois in the wonderful blog of Cheryl Klein, senior editor at Arthur A. Levine Books. (http://www.cherylklein.com/id6.html)
“In literature, as in love, we are astonished at what is chosen by others.” — André Maurois
Maybe next time I’ll have better news.
Fingers crossed.

Words for Writers to Live by
“Just write your heart out. I promise you that’s what matters. I would much, much rather find a great, unusual, distinctive book by a phobic writer covered in oozing sores who lives in a closet than a decent but not amazingly original book by the world’s best promoter. I could sell the former a lot better, too.” Elizabeth Law, Publisher, Egmont USA
