I've been experiencing that -- not necessarily with rejection or negative reviews, but moreso with setbacks on a few different projects of mine. It's like I can't even get the project off of the ground to even reach the point of receiving a rejection of negative review. <br /><br />That's what really bugs me....even with rejections and negative reviews, at least there is SOMETHING to reject or review -- if I don't even have that "something," then, it's a long, rough road to travel on, I gotta tell ya.<br /><br />Thank goodness for cupcakes and wine!
