Hot on the heels of my first expression of interest from an agent this week I got my first (and very nice it was too) rejection today. The first of many no doubt. But don’t worry, I’m not going to hit the bottle, well I might, but not out of sorrow.
If you’re not familiar with this process let me tell you it is really normal and never personal.
I feel completely and utterly unfazed, I am RESOLUTE… you know how I am.
SOMEWHERE out there, maybe just around the corner, is an agent and publisher right for this book. I just have to put it in as many hands as I can until that moment. If you’re interested in this topic here’s a good article I shared on the blog fb page yesterday on the process of finding an agent. As I said to Adrian last night, I don’t know if I’m daunted or inspired… but it’s probably both.
Onwards, xo Jane
This book is going to be golden.
