    My book was rejected by all the publishers.

    Well I just got the word back from my agency. My book was rejected by all the publishers after being out ther for s while. I was kinda disapointed, but to tell you the truth I had kind of begun to question the quality of my novel. You se I wrote it when I was 13-14, and it just seems kind of ehhh now. I mean I feel that I've gotten so much better as an author, and itsthat sweet fog of nostaligia thing. Anyway, I'm diving back into it, and I will fix the problems with it. Funny, how that works.

    I'm sure if you tweak it as you see fit, then it will get better. Since I haven't seen the novel, I can't say anything about it, but I'm sure that if ya go over it again, you'll be able to fix everything that needs to be.

    Man, I read somewhere that this guy took some classic book that had won a bunch of awards and sent it in as a manuscript to all the publishing houses and they all rejected it. One of them said it "lacked depth." So you never know!

    Still, as a newswriter, I'd have to say there's no story that can't be improved by working on it some more. So good luck and keep at it!
