Hello! This week I am thrilled to share a link to a brand new publication. I wrote this creative nonfiction piece for one of my favorite mentors, who sadly passed away. This particular piece was rejected three times despite various editors expressing to me that it was a “wonderfully crafted piece” that “stayed with them a long time” but ultimately “didn’t make the cut.” Despite these rejections, I didn’t give up!
My tenacity paid off. Today, I am thrilled to share that the Rockvale Review believed in this piece and published it in their latest issue. The lesson here .. . . sometimes in addition to tenacity, you just need patience and the right people to believe in your goal to make it happen. I hope you enjoy!
Here it is:
