Aha - yes I must confess, I’ve been sweating over something for the past couple of days that really hasn’t been pleasant.

I’m just about over the disappointment of being turned down for a gig I was really interested in doing - which happens quite often but on this occasion I was invited to apply.

Getting over rejection as a writer is an important aspect of the job, and usually it is pretty easy. However when you’re asked to apply by someone and there’s a good chance you’re going to get it, losing out is a bit of a killer.

I’ve got plenty of other things to worry about atthe moment of course - I have at least one book in the works - so getting over it has been relatively quick.
