Unfortunetly....
Is my new favourite word to hate.
Just got two letters from the Queensland Writers Centre that could only be baout my poetry manuscript and the three poems in the singple poem competition. I had a hopeful moment that htey wouldnt waste time sending rejection letters and would only bother telling me if i was successfully shortlisted.
.....nope.
All rejections... and three seperate rejections in the one envelope for the single poems one.... that hurt, lol.
Oh well, since netering the manuscript I've become less and less happy with it, so now I have an excuse to rip it apart and piece it back together as something better and try to get it published or try again next year, i guess.
Still have a couple of other competitions that I'm still waiting to hear from...
