The rejection part is so real. I find that each rejection stings more than each publication, which is a glass-half-empty observation but a part of putting oneself out there. I love this poem — soil sews itself back together?!!! Keep submitting. This reads like something I’d analyze in English 160. Proud of you!

english 160 analysis what an HONOR!! i need your writing asap. i have the exact same mentality when it comes to rejections/acceptances, even if i know i'm being pessimistic. it's just so much easier to focus on the negative things, but we need to celebrate each win no matter how small :)
