Right...Thanks so much, Sandra, for your kind words! Right after I posted here yesterday, I checked my email--and that's when I got that rejection. I haven't been feeling well physically (again), which always depresses me, but I woke up feeling better mentally yesterday. And then I got that rejection.... <BR/><BR/>Take care, I hope you have a good break/rest and get right back into writing afterward,<BR/><BR/>FranAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8208953.post-1144427520079417342006-04-07T12:32:00.000-04:002006-04-07T12:32:00.000-04:00Fran,I just read yesterday's post on your blog. I'...Fran,<BR/>I just read yesterday's post on your blog. I'm sorry you feel so awful about writing. But I don't blame you. If I hadn't gotten published in my 30's, who knows what I would've done? But I think you should persevere because you love doing it. And I'm glad you got out all the venom. Take some time, do something wonderful for yourself then send out that story again.<BR/><BR/>There's probably no point in telling you that I have a good friend who felt like you but she finally got published when she was fifty. Nah, I won't tell you that.<BR/><BR/>Don't give up.<BR/>SandraSandra Scoppettonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00149336752789641751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8208953.post-1144345646715101292006-04-06T13:47:00.000-04:002006-04-06T13:47:00.000-04:00Hope you enjoy your break, assuming you ultimately...Hope you enjoy your break, assuming you ultimately take one. And congratulations on your good PW review!<BR/><BR/>I admit that I've grown to hate writing overall. I only write when I feel like writing; I just happen to feel like writing every day (call me an enternal masochist). Except maybe when I'm not feeling well. Eh, not that it really matters much: I still usually write when I'm sick, but it's sometimes an unpleasant process.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
