Urgency and Rejection

I’ve been sending out more query letters to literary agents as of late for The Mustard Prince in the Condiment Kingdom. I have felt this particular urgency to send more as of late. I did not always put sending query letters out as priority, but now I feel that I have to. 

With sending out more query letters, I have been receiving more rejections. I’ve received some positive feedback about my book even in rejection, which I appreciate, but it’s still disheartening to get rejected. Now, it’s just most constant rejection.

I have a spreadsheet showing my rejections. If I reach the goal and actually get professionally published, I’m going to be really proud of that spreadsheet.
