Ecclesiastes 11:6 "In
the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou
knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both
shall be alike good."
This verse is a writer’s
creed. We need to keep sending queries, proposals, and manuscripts out.
No matter how many
rejections we receive, or how many things we have sent out and never heard back
about, we need to keep trying. We need to keep our market lists handy and send
the rejected piece out again to the next one on the list.
Eventually we will begin
to get acceptances as long as we are careful to send out our best work to the
right markets. But we will never publish if we never submit.
