What do Ray Bradbury, Albert Einstein, and Henry Ford have in common? Their stories of rejection, failure, and overcoming adversity are light-heartedly told in Joyce Spizer's latest book, Rejections of the Written Famous.

Tony Hillerman’s agent told him,
“Get rid of the Indian stuff.”

Mark Hansen and Jack Canfield, the mega-best selling
“Chicken Soup” team, received thirty-three
rejections and their agent dropped them.

What do these people have in common? They didn’t give up and neither should you. “No” is the word you’re going to hear on your way to “Yes.” Inspiration plus perspiration equals success! Bovee said, “There is probably no hell for authors in the next world because they suffer so much in this.”

If you're bummed and need inspiration, Joyce Spizer's book is just the cure for the blues. Whether you're a writer, artist, entrepreneur, musician, or dreamer, this collection of inspirational quotes and short stories from those who didn't give up will make you or someone you love, smile. Joyce didn't give up on her dreams, and she won't let you either.
