Now, I'm assuming that most of you people have done so, but what have your experiences been? I sent a story at the end of March and have heard nothing since then. A month ago I queried after the status of the piece and have still heard nothing. I know of two people who have sent stories after mine (significantly so) and have gotten their rejections, which begs the question, where the heck is my freaking rejection? I've submitted to the New Yorker before, and my rejections have always come in under two months. So what gives? Anyone else here had long waits (or just no answer ever?)? This particular story is, so far, the best I have ever produced. I don't like to sim sub, but there is an anthology whose reading period is drawing rapidly to a close. Should I withdraw and resubmit? Should I wait? I've been waiting FOREVER. Once I submitted a story to Cricket and got my rejection two years later, but at least then I had forgotten about it, so I didn't even care. I've never cared so much about a story than I care for this one.
Anyway, if anyone could share their experiences, I would appreciate it.
Cheers!
