Writing: Rejection

Some advice I will follow that I ought have followed 40 years ago I found on The Jericho Writer's blog:

The novel was as good as I could make it. I knew that it worked. Without the rejection from that first agent, my novel would not have developed into the story it is today. The dogged determination to keep getting it out there would never have set in.

Persist.

That comes from Sally Harris' How Rejection Set Me On The Path To Publication. How she details her persistence is worth reading.
