At some stage, an anthology will come up that will be perfect for what you have written. I sold a story that had won the Mary Grant Bruce Award, but had been lurking in my folders, when, suddenly, someone was buying library themed stories(it was a ghost story set in a library). My Snow White story had been rejected and lying around for YEARS before Mythic Resonance wanted myth and folk tale stories. And then there was my novel - rejected by every YA publisher in Australia before a lady who had liked it but had to reject it before needed a complete MS and bought it. Keep writing and submitting. Don't give up. And definitely don't go comparing yourself with other writers, however good, or you'll give up.Sue Bursztynskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09362273418897882971noreply@blogger.com
