today, on the day i was hopeful about sharing exciting news, i feel foolish.

i was offered publication from sage & sparrow to now be told that they don’t have the capacity to take me on. i was given a deadline to respond within — which i did, to be met with this.

a 🧵 — honestly, there have been so many red flags throughout this process that i should’ve suspected things were bound to go wrong. but i feel especially wronged considering i had given myself 2 weeks to consider (industry standard) and responded within that timeline to get rejected?
