Ho hum, two rejections in the past week. But never mind. Stephen King said in that book about writing that you haven't really earned your stripes or learned your craft if you haven't got... er, a certain thickness, some inches anyway... of rejection letters on a spike on your desk. But hold on! All my recent ones have come by email! They have no physical thickness! I will never fill up the spike on my desk and never succeed! King Has Said It So It Must Be True.

I think I heard of someone doing that for a prank... taking issue with what was written in job rejection letters and sending them back as unsatisfactory!

Trouble is, both of these were too short to be interesting in that way. Just 'this story was OK but it didn't do it for me' in both cases. Not much to get my teeth into there...
