First form rejection for my novel. It stings but I still have my fingers and toes crossed for good news from the folks I haven't heard back from yet.

One of my fave poem forms is the abecedarian. Each line’s first word begins with a corresponding letter of the alphabet. Line 1 begins with “a” line 2 with “b”all the way to line 26 beginning with “z” I’m thrilled that one of mine was accepted for publication by @GrainLitMag 🥰.

So far I've sent out 9 queries, 8 agents, 1 editor. Looking to maybe send 1 more and am shouting into the interwebs for recommendations.

#amwriting is it me, or are authors who successfully support themselves solely by writing, selling their work and book tours kind of like literary unicorns?.
