Sorry to hear about the rejection. Good for you, though, for limiting the moping then sending the story back out into the world. It will find its home! :)
So sorry about the rejection. Just keep plugging it and you WILL succeed. ��
I bet he's not very talkative.
You're supposed to tell people it's your birthday!
I'm sorry!!
I bet your co-pilot gets some looks...
So sorry Shannon since that's not what you were hoping for but I'll bet Skip is great in the car pool lane.
Aw ... Sorry. Next time. Right?
I bet Skip is a great listener. ; ) Thanks for sharing the links. Sorry about the rejection email.
Sorry about your rejection. Good for you get it back out there.
My condolences on your rejection. Hopefully you'll soon find exactly the right fit.
Hi human, Shannon,
Hey the rejection does bring good news. You don't give up and that speaks volumes for your determination.
I see one site is seeking humour aka humor. That leaves my human out, then.
I just wanted to share you are one of my most favouritest bloggers. Arf!
Pawsitive wishes,
Penny :)
Madeline, it was a hard mope to get past. Really thought I had that one. But it's back out there, so we'll see.
Michelle, I will! That was the most interest I'd had in that story, so far, but it means there's something to it.
Andrew, I'm just glad I got the rejection the day before my birthday!
Alex, my co-pilot creates lots of smiles, which I love.
Maurice, ha! People keep telling me he doesn't count. What do they know?
Shelly, I sure hope so.
Susanne, he is, but he gives me some odd looks.
Susan, thanks!
Carrie-Anne, I'd love to find the perfect fit.
Penny, aw, thanks! No humour/humor from your human?
