Or as well as I think it does. See today's leaky-plumbing tweets, I suppose.<br /><br />*HUGS* that's all I got.Amalia Dillinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13005039978668326144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4216358162273548069.post-9269881888368093962013-10-08T09:40:33.823-07:002013-10-08T09:40:33.823-07:00I don't think this post is overly negative. Yo...I don't think this post is overly negative. You're not going into blow-by-blow specifics or being overly dramatic. I think writer common sense tells us not to tweet or blog about every single rejection, or go on some rant about agents and the publishing industry. But I don't see a problem with a general "I've been having a tough time" blog post. As long as the majority of your stuff is upbeat, people won't ostracize you for breaking "the rules".<br /><br />Sorry lots of Big Stuff has been going on and hope it smooths out soon. I always tell myself during those times that "this too will pass". And if it makes you feel any better, I've gotten lots of rejections this year, too!alexiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07122487552931794871noreply@blogger.com
