Another rejection letter. Oh god it stings. I haven't had enough sleep to be able to deal with, of all things, more rejection.
So, I joined this website thing and got a lot of new email addresses and agents to send another wave of queries to. It's a healthy reaction in a way I suppose. Every time I am pushed back I just get so angry I have to something, anything.
The website is www.firstwriter.com and I mainly chose it as a cheaper alternative to the literary market place. So far it seems to have a lot of agents that weren't in the writers handbook. So, assuming they are not fictional, it's been worth the spash.
Maybe I will get to the stage where there will be nothing left for me to strike back with. But I am not there yet, so I will continue. Continue to throw myself against this brick wall. Well, it's not like I have a choice. Failure is not an option.
The people out there are being deprived of my writing, who shall step in to set things right?
It looks like a part of the game theory.
ReplyDeleteTake it easy, Eoghan.
You're right of course. Thanks Cbel.
ReplyDeleteI let this kind of thing affect me way too much. Haven't been eating right and have had trouble sleeping.
It's just not productive.
