Product Description

Product Description
This book delves into the stories of forty authors of the past whose works, although initially rejected, are today very much alive. Their experiences of repudiation can only cheer and support readers. They illustrate the need to stubbornly persist toward the goal of publication. Fortunately for English literature, many beloved and respected writers persisted despite rejections of benighted publishers. Authors featured include: Jane Austen, Charlotte Bronte, Agatha Christie, George Orwell and Beatrix Potter.

4.0 out of 5 stars This Book Is Unpublishable!, 7 Oct 2007
By Tami Brady "Whole Health Therapist" (Calgary, Canada) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This Book is Unpublishable contains stories of 40 writers. These writers all have two things in common. All had their work originally rejected. All went on to become quite famous for their writing. From Louisa May Alcott who was told "to stick to your teaching; you can't write" to Agatha Christie who had to wait four years for her first book to be published to Zane Grey who after dozens of rejections eventually self published his first book.

This Book is Unpublishable is a must have book for every writer or want to be writer. There are always going to be those days when you get a rejection letter or just really start to wonder if you were meant to write. I suggest that on those days you read this book. I guarantee you'll feel differently about rejection and become even more inspired to reach your goals.
