I was excited to send a reworked article to another journal. I learned this morning it was rejected. I'm bummed out, but not the same way as last time. But I will admit I struggle with sorting out what academic journals want.
I'm not the first person who has done academic articles who has been rejected more than once, I do understand that. But this time, what is different is that I decided to pull in more resource around me while I work on the other article. I sent the article to two historians and someone who works on literature to take a look at it and address the overall critique of it.
I told them not to hold back. With their help, I will figure out how to do this.
It's important for us to be honest about the setbacks to publishing. If you're not careful, you think that no one has these struggles.
I'll just be open about them.
Just sayin'.
