“I have had very bitter rejections. Let me tell you something personal. In 2016, I got on the Writivism longlist with a story I believed in but it didn’t go further. I actually cried because I didn’t get on the shortlist. I started sending out stories to count my rejections. What you see right now is not automatic. It may be for some writers, lucky them. But for me, it’s been a long road filled with gravel.”
