It can’t all be good news.

5 Feb

Today was sort of horrible.  I gave myself from 7-10am to work on this one class and it really took me from 9am-7pm (with a nap thrown in for good measure).  So, I only got half of my list done today and my butt hurts from sitting so much.

Onto other news, my article got rejected.  This is the one I worked on for two quarters with a professor.  Everyone said, oh, they’ll come back to you asking for edits.  But, no, it was just a flat out rejection.  I feel overwhelmed and a little bit worthless today.  Oh how the tides change.

    Hang in there! I got rejected from two journals for two different articles before I finally got an “accepted with revisions.” It usually means that your article isn’t right for the journal’s current needs, not that it isn’t worth publishing.
