I saved my first REAL REJECTION
for Mango Tango, a language tango novel (I was young).
Dear Esther Cohen
said Susan from Doubleday
the problem with this novel
is the words.
Since then I’ve received many
many rejections (most not as memorable
as Susan’s from Doubleday)
but yesterday I got a poetry rejection
saying
I Kind of Liked This
But Not Enough
So No.
You got a poem back!
O U C H !
