Controversy @ Noon: Rejection: “Frame” or Reframe?

Join our panelists as they discuss the complexities of dealing with rejection during our May Controversy @ Noon panel.

As writers, we are told that rejection, a lot of rejection – most likely – is par for the course. Some of us cope by making light of the situation, framing rejection letters and showcasing them on an office wall or shelf. Others opt to go back to the drawing board, reframing their process, their work, or even their overall career plans. When is enough enough? Is there a point where we accept that something isn’t working and move on to the next project? Where is the line that separates resilience from naivety?
