Not all non-writing friends and relatives really understand what rejection in the business entails, and not all of them care whether you keep going or not. Even small successes can be followed by rejections that feel like you are sinking back into failure. But it is not so.<br /><br />The path may be windy, but as long as you keep walking it, you are going somewhere.Dianne K.
