Well, you will probably get rejected a lot, because I did and still do, but really they should change that word so it's not "rejection", such a bad word!<br /><br />But to your main question, my answer is I don't know! I was a real closet writer for years and submitted away without telling anyone. Basically I've only ever told anybody about the acceptances, not the rejections. But I don't think my way is particularly helpful - nobody gave me any support or encouragement because they didn't know what I was doing!<br /><br />I guess the best way is to tell them when you feel you want to but also to kind of ignore their encouragement - in the sense of knowing that they're not editors. But don't give up - you can do it!! xxxAmanda Kendlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05178108297108834609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8691787304230239228.post-18909399203972261542010-12-18T18:20:56.039+08:002010-12-18T18:20:56.039+08:00Personally I'd be encouraging you to share as ...Personally I'd be encouraging you to share as often as you can - new ideas, competitions you're planning to enter, everything. Not only will this give your enthralled audience more to read ;o) but it will give you a chance to get more feedback and more experience writing. And surely these last two points will mean that the disappointment of rejection is short-lived and will soon give way to the exhilaration of acceptance!Bradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00564767078985950877noreply@blogger.com
