My First Rejection Letter

I am unreasonably proud of it, maybe because it means that I actually got up the courage/fortitude/momentum to send the darn thing out.

I plan to hang it on my wall. Hopefully it will not spend very much time there alone.

... of course, some acceptances would be nice, too, but I don't have much control over that end of it. All I can do is keep sending things out--which I will.

On the rewriting front, I have some notion of how to revise one of the other stories I wrote at Odyssey. On the writing front, I've gotten a few ideas, but they are clearly all cliched and terrible.

Nothing unreasonable about being proud of the first rejection. It means you got something out there, so woo hoo!

Exactly. And I intend to keep sending things out there.
