REJECT ME, I LOVE IT!

by David J. Ashton
13th February 2015

I know it's not a question, just a statement that I like to remind myself of whenever I'm rejected for something. In this case it's in relation to having just received my very first rejection letter from a Book Agent - well, the first for this book anyway!

Next one please - as I said in the title - I LOVE IT!

To the excellent Mr Woodgates,

your title intrigued me, so I went to check out the book. As soon as I'm done with my elves (just don't ask) I'll be downloading. I was also intrigued by your 'witty' reviewer. If you haven't checked them out, know that they have only ever given 1 positive review to ANYTHING, and they don't know the difference between "it's" and "its". So I wouldn't worry.

To Richard,

How about merging the two titles? That way all your bases are covered. I quite like "The slaughtered virgin and the yellow daisy of tranquility"…
