So I'm trying to break into a new genre, and so far I've had five rejections spread across three stories.
Thing is, one story has gotten three rejections so far. The first one, the publication received 400 submissions - okay, that's fine, I can understand getting knocked out from that. The second said that the story didn't fit the tone they are looking for, so it was just not a proper fit. But the third - and this venue was practically tailor made for the story - rejected it without a comment.
At what point do you start doubting the story you have is publishable?
