Bloggers on Rejection, The Week in Review

• There's a creepy 27-point general defense of rejection at The Willesden Herald Blog, which I assume is due to the recent Zadie Smith debacle.


• Eliot--A Literary Blog has an interesting article entitled "The Power of Push: Motivating Yourself to Write"


• The Ranting Room Blog follows the rejection and publication history of a work in several parts.


• PutaRuffleonIt Blog posts about encountering rejection editors in person, plus links to other posts about rejection.


• Children's book author Eloise Greenfield is interviewed about rejection and other literary matters over at the Brown Bookshelf Blog. She says: "My road to publication was long, and not surprisingly, filled with rejections. These were the low points, but not too low-- I was optimistic (although I did shed a few tears)."
