Wed, 13 December 2006 the writers’ rodeo

Another day another rejection.

I’ve been thrown off that horse so many times I know every crease in the saddle. Each time I hit the ground, dirt flying in the air, I’m surprised. Despite it I climb back on the nag, and I’m optimistic.

I must be mad.

    You’d better climb back into the saddle. Because if you don’t, we’ll pester you until you do. ;)

    I knew I’d hit a new low when I found myself identifying with last week’s wretched made-for-tv movie, where the protagonist is a writer, played by Rob Lowe. Everytime he’d pull a rejection slip out of the mailbox my eyes would well up.You know when you are empathizing with Rob Lowe you are in a vulnerable literary condition. :)
