February 4, 2011 from 10:30am to 11:45am
F139. The Art of Rejection: Giving and Receiving. (Diana Raab, Wendy Call, Kevin Morgan Watson, Geeta Kothari, Molly Peacock, Philip F. Deaver) Rejection is part of the literary life. Rejection of your manuscript is not a rejection of you as a person or a writer, but of one piece of writing. It says nothing about your potential.

Thanks for the sweet words. Truly, I think this book is the true sequel to Blackbird. The second and third were marketing pushes from my agent/publisher. We'll see if it sells. xo
