By Jennifer Blanchard Rejection is a part of life. And one place you're almost guaranteed to run into rejection is when you're trying to get your writing published. Rejection. Yes, I said it. And if you're planning on making a career in writing and publishing, you better plan on facing the facts: Your writing will be rejected (Note: I said your writing would be rejected, not you. You are fabulous!). Every writer experiences rejection. It's the nature of the business. Here's how to overcome writing rejection:

Retain Absolute Faith--Step one to putting your writing out there is you have to believe in yourself and your writing. (And if you don't, you shouldn't be putting your work out there until you do.) Believing is 90 percent of being successful.

Confront the Brutal Facts--You got rejected, that's it. That doesn't mean anything. You are still a good writer. Your writing is still worthy of being sent to magazines and publishers.
Act!--Keep trying. Keep sending your work out. Keep writing.

As Thomas Jefferson said: "Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up." So, Procrastinating Writers...how do you deal with writing rejection?
