It can be depressing when no one takes interest, and a lack of response makes the writer question why they’re writing at all. To have one’s writing rejected is like you, yourself, are being rejected.

About This Quote

People who write often feel rejected by the people they want to reach. They need help and understanding, but instead they get rejection. But, there is nothing depressing about receiving rejection. It is just part of the process of writing. If you are rejected, it just means that someone else liked what you wrote.
