Days of Gentle Rejections

  • Summary

  • In these days of instant gratification, it's hard to believe once upon a time, wanna-be writers would type and print their manuscripts, post them to publishers with a reply-paid, self-addressed envelope. And then wait and wait and wait, for an offer to publish or, more likely, a feared rejection letter.

    Days of Gentle Rejections is a blog post from the Tall And True writers' website, written and narrated by Robert Fairhead.
