Toon Thursday: Stages of Rejection #2


We’re well underway on our “Seven Stages of Rejection” now. The irony, of course, is that I’ve already gotten over the rejection that spawned this seven-week burst of creativity, and I’ve already sent out new queries and gotten on with my life. On the other hand, I don’t have to agonize over cartoon ideas for the next few weeks. Hmm…perhaps that rejection had quite a significant silver lining. (Click here for Stage One, in case you missed last week.)
Speaking of cartoons about rejection, I came across an excellent cartoon (originally from The Onion) on reasons for rejection at the blog of kt literary. The blog is called Ask Daphne! and it’s got a lot of useful info from an agent’s perspective.
I’ll be back tomorrow–with my first-ever contribution to Poetry Friday! Now I’ve announced it to the public at large, so I can’t wuss out!
