The Brewster

Hey all, I wanted to share I recently did not win or get an honorable mention for a small writing contest I entered. And, it feels amazing! It was the first piece of writing I've submitted to be judged in any form. I lost my metaphorical rejection virginity, and, just like my real virginity, it wasn't a big deal whatsoever.

Congrats to me! Here's to many more rejections as I realized the process of writing is what I enjoy anyhow.

Congratulations on the minor suck. And I was referring to you losing your virginity.

Remember that guy who gave up? Neither does anyone else.

Congrats, Doug. Did they reject you on your birthday?

Good for you on exploring new horizons. Care to share the piece?

Ha. Nope.

Congratulations on your failure. It means you were willing to put your work out there which shows courage.

Welcome to the club. I want so say I have something in the range of 1.200 rejections ... so keep at it!

All my efforts at running a successful fake baseball team have been rejected.

So there's that.

Hey if nothing else, you had the guts to put it out there.

Wait.... is that a period instead of a comma!? Is Ron saying he’s only been rejected slightly more than once in his life?

I thought about editing it, but I liked the typo.
