You’ve Been Rejected, Now What?
When your work is declined, it can feel devastating. In this class, we will examine our responses and those rejections to strategize for your ultimate goal of publication. How do you know when to walk away from a particular market or continue to submit? Learn from a former editor and author, whose hundreds of rejections did not deter her from winning a GAP grant, Jack Straw fellowship, chapbook contest, and having over 100 pieces and four collections published.
