However, my motivation to put words on paper plummeted to the lowest low when Monday’s mail brought two rejection letters. Scott, Shira, and Sam have already “barked” on the subject and I don’t have anything to add other than that this video of Irish comedian Dylan Moran as the main character in the TV series Black Books reacting to a recent rejection letter cheered me up.

All those years I tried to get published and got rejected my response was, “I’ll show ’em” and went back to the wip. But it all piled up. A final straw and depression set in. When feeling low, I read Georgette Heyer. Usually one or two would have me laughing again and ready to get back to work. This time I read my whole Heyer shelf and wanted more. I wrote one. And discovered I’d been working in the wrong field altogether. I guess I wish I’d gotten depressed much sooner!
Good tip Jeanne. Whenever I read some one who inspires me I feel a little better, or at least motivated to keep going despite rejections. 🙂
