Don't Let Rejection Deter You - podcast

Rejection happens—it happens to every aspiring author. It's how you handle the rejection that determines whether or not you reach your goal of getting published. Robert Dugoni, New York Times bestselling author of legal thrillers, offers his perspective on the meaning of rejection, how to handle rejection from a publisher, and how to use it as a tool to improve. He says that you can't let the fear of rejection stop you from fulfilling your publishing dream. This interview will encourage you to be tenacious in the face of rejection. It will remind you that even the biggest authors have dealt with rejection, and if they can overcome it, so can you.

    My family won't talk to me anymore because my fiction book is too true! They threatened to sue me even though I changed names and places. I do have a loving husband who encourages me though. My first book More Miserable in Green Valley Ranch should be published sometime this month through Xlibris. Can't wait!

    Thank you for this, yes rejection is not nice. But the best point Robert makes is that you would not actually get a letter at all if you did not put yourself out there to get it in the first place. As an artist when I started to paint and decided to start selling my artwork, the worst thing ever was to take that first painting to the art gallary or the art shop. The best ever feeling was when I sold my first painting and it was a painting I did not like or would ever buy it for myself....but someone loved it and bought it. Wow. I then realised everyone has an individual taste. And now as a writer and after being criticised for not being able to communicate.... if I sell one book it will be wow for me.
