Back to back two rejections from two different presses for two different stories in under a minute. Wow. #2026WritingJourney #WritingCommunity #WriteEditSubmitReject

I was just thinking—about been a hot sec since I got a rejection—in the morning, and I got one in the afternoon. (The week had been pretty busy full of rejections… and also one acceptance—more on this later when I can share the details) #2026WritingJourney #AmWriting #WriteEditSubmitReject

Caught up with a lot of things to catch up with in March, so definitely won't be sending out too many stories, but expecting a whole lot of #rejections, just got my 2nd one for the day, and 4th one for the month. #2026WritingJourney #AmWriting #WriteEditSubmitReject

Houston we have a lift off! After 18 Rejections since last Acceptance, I got my 3rd acceptance for the month last night 🎉 Very excited that another one of my weird little stories found a home (while you wait for this, check patreon?) #WritingCommunity #WriteEditSubmitReject #2026WritingJourney

I suppose the 16th rejection for the month is a sweet enough reason to update this thread. (on the other hand, I've also sent out stories to 27 market this month) #WritingCommunity #WriteEditSubmitReject #2026WritingJourney (p.s. a reminder about commissions being open, check pinned post)

I sent out a new story for an anthology call, and just as the email went through, I also received an email instantly from a different magazine with a new rejection 😂 Universe keeping a balance. #WritingCommunity #WriteEditSubmitReject #2026WritingJourney

I wasn't too far off from my expectations, just got the mail from Apex, planning to return to the first draft (which was closer to 1500 words, before I brought it down to 1000 for Apex) and send it out to one of the magazines I have been considering for it #2026WritingJourney #WriteEditSubmitReject
