Rejected!

In the enjoyable chaos of trying to have my mainline non-fiction books up for discussion, I have forgotten the one book that hit print this year which was actually sheer delight to write, from the first line. This is Rejected- published by the Fortnightly Review after being serialized on their site. This is, I hope, a read to make you smile. Every writer knows the agony of rejection, but incredibly, there is a funny side to this- humour to be found in the necessary stoicism involved.
My book recounts true and imagined scenes of failure from social and literary history, and I include my own weeping and beating of my chest in the throes of being unwanted by publishers.
Rejected covers most periods of literary history, but encompasses my own literary identities, which have ranged from performance poet to hack reviewer and from true crime merchant to genealogist.
I'd love to hear from readers if it does make them smile...
