Just received mine (Btw, I'm new to the boards and new to this whole querying process so hello)!
I knew it was coming and from reading all these posts, I was trying to build up a thick wall but man - I still felt all the breath rush out of me. It hurt. I kept re-reading it too, as if I expected it to magically change into a "yes! we'd love to see your manuscript!" lol. Kind of completely pathetic, I know.
Just wondering if y'all could share your "first" rejection experience too, take a trip down memory lane, haha. How'd y'all get to be such pros at this?
