Chatting with My Mom
Mom: I could never write creatively.
Me: Well neither could I. But I just kept doing it and failing and doing it and failing and doing it failing and then getting rejected and getting rejected and getting rejected. You know my first book was rejected over 50 times. And if it wasn’t 50, it felt like 50.
Mom: What book was that?
Me: My first poetry book.
Mom: Why was it rejected so much?
Me: I don't know.
Mom: How dare they?
Thanks Mom!
