Inside Rejection

In season three, episode nine of Gotham Writers' Inside Writing, host Josh Sippie conducts a panel discussion with writer Kim Liao and Marissa Korbel, managing editor of The Rumpus. They discuss how to turn rejections into learning opportunities, how not to take it personally, and how to turn those rejections into acceptances.
