Another day, another rejection letter—what’s a new writer to do? While holding your breath, stomping your feet, or crying might sound cathartic (not to mention dramatic), it won’t help your writing get published. You can, however, develop certain behaviors that will increase the odds of a literary agent or editor saying “yes” to your work.
Pick up the write habit. No matter how naturally skilled you are, if you want to get better at something, you have to practice. Even the best writers can have a mediocre, not-so-stellar day. Look at your work objectively, and be honest with yourself about what needs to be improved.
