Which is worse: being rejected or being ignored?

Post by Jenni Mansfield Peal » April 20th, 2005, 6:28 pm

I'm interested.
I've been both.
My music has also been accepted, encouraged, and applauded - even envied, I'm told.
I recently got a pretty stinging rejection on the album I spent four years producing (gee-zus tears are coming to my pwecious widdle eyes), so I keep calling myself brave (applause, applause) for throwing it out there.

o, no!
i said 'vacuum' is worse
but rejection of 4 years work is a horrible blow

hmmm, but at least you weren't ignored. They responded to you.
Keep trying. Remember how long Jack Kerouac waited before someone thought well enough of On the Road to publish it.

(meanwhile, crying is good therapy. But the best therapy is to come jam with us this weekend. Let out those feelings of rage and frustration)

Thanks, Judih
My sweetheart and the image master of the house Tom Peal and I are both ready for it. He even registered today. He's the picture guy, I'm the word girl.

Glad to know that Tom's with you and bringing along such images.
Is that you in the photo?

This is going to be good. Rejection leads to innovation.
