You are so much stronger than I am, Jenna. Rejections knock me for six, but I am veerrryy slowly coming to grips with them - and I mean slowly.

I wish I had a rejection :-)

But that would mean submitting something. And that would mean finishing something.

So I've got a ways to go!

You're so awesome, Jenna. It's an inspiration just watching you and Cynthia do the whole submission thing. I learn so much from you. I'm pretty slow at this, but I'm not convinced I have enough good stuff to submit yet.
