Small or big, a publication is still a publication. There's always the fear of rejection when I send out a sub. That, I must admit, has always got in the way of my publication journey.

Well, hey. Let's encourage each other! I need to drill down into my chapbook and get that sent out the first half of this year anyway. I'll double-down on my work and build a submission tracker on my computer. 

You should send out some more of your pieces, too! Your work is solid. It will get rejected a lot, like anything, but it will get picked up somewhere, I'm sure. It's good enough. 

Remember that even Plath got rejected an absurd amount, and she is iconic today. 😊
