It’s perhaps a funny thing to celebrate but if you’re a writer this may strike a chord.
My email this morning contained a rejection, and it’s had me smiling all day.
Apex Magazine put out a call for flash fiction about memory, and I happened to have a flash piece on memory.
I submitted.
They responded.
With rejection, yes, but it was a personal rejection with phrases like “this is beautifully written” and “hope to read something from you in the future.”
I’ll take that:)
