Joyce Maynard, a successful, much published author, cops to feeling a lot of self-doubt when she gets a rejection -- most recently by the MacDowell writing colony. If you're her friend, you can see her post at: https://www.facebook.com/joyce.maynar...
Meanwhile, I'm finding out that not only can a book be rejected by agents and publishers -- but by publicists as well. You have to decide whether you like your book -- and stick to your guns. See my post on the subject at http://barbarafalconernewhall.com/201...
