Hi,
I got 5 rejections today and one acceptance (its from NY Creative and he wants the whole manuscript) from what I hear its not the best set up)
Anyway, I'm sitting on my bed with my girlfriend and she starts trying to say it's just part of the business.
I was mentioning one rejection in particular where the agent said,
"I doubt there is a paying hardcover audience for this, so I will pass, but thanks and good luck."
I decided to explain it to my girlfriend like Johnie Depp as Ed Wood.
"Look it's not so bad honey, look at the bright side! He's not saying it wouldnt make a good hard cover book he's actually saying it would make a tremendous soft cover book! I've read rejections where they don't even mention the cover!!"
She almost fell off the bed laughing.
