I'm a goal setter at heart; always have been. But when I started writing seriously about three years ago, I quickly discovered rejection. Which in my mind equaled failure and nixed my writing mojjo. Hah... Apply oneself, fall of the horse, give permission to get back on the horse, and eventually win! <br /><br />Thanks for visiting Writers' Ally. I'm a follower now.S.A.

Of course I'm calling it APRIL MADNESS (since who but the crazies do this? Um, like me!).<br /><br />Your "A" is awesome. Yep. It's all about the application. Getting it done.

This is a...I really enjoy reading your blog, Sarah. This is a very useful post. <br /><br />You make a great point to apply to contests, magazines, agents, etcetera. Personally, I am in graduate school for science writing, so I want to concentrate on the writing not the publishing. I was annoyed last semester that my classmates spent so much time wanting to talk about how to get published!<br /><br />I think I've started to come around. It's not so much that I think my writing is ready to be published (I don't! Not at all!) but it's great to dip your foot in the pool so the first time you want to submit a manuscript isn't your first time talking to an agent or writing a pitch.Callie Leuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09535505792102190920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554125151787997248.post-31511318723809258262011-04-01T10:37:15.028-07:002011-04-01T10:37:15.028-07:00I'm loving the A-Z challenge.
