F.W. Rider
Forget about knock backs, forget about bad reviews. You'll never be able to please everyone and not everyone will like your work. I was so frightened to put my work out there that I took a response from a magazine of, "We liked it but we've already had something similar, we'll need something different." to be a knock back and I put my pen down for about 10 years. Don't be like me, keep on wiring and keep on pushing!
