I think Papyrus was one of the dozens of greeting card companies I tried writing for. They rejected me, as you can see. I was never able to sell a greeting card submission after hundreds of attempts. I moved on...Of course, I thought my greeting card messages were brilliant, but the dozens of rejections slips I got humbled me.

The best I got was a "maybe" on one submission, but nothing came of it.

Thanks for commenting! Glad you liked the projects!!

Although you've failed over hunderd times, but you should keep the faith on yourself. Who know, you might be succeed in the next 101 attempts?!

Thanks for the encouragement!

I think I'll just publish some of them in blog form someday and at least earn adsense off them. Some of the submissions I wrote would be cute in handmade greeting cards.

Rejection doesn't bother me much. I'm used to it-ha ha!!
