Nos are part of the game. At least it doesn't cost much apart from effort to make someone read your stuff, even if there's a no. Just stay at it and use the extra time to edit and improve.

Keep getting nos for now, and the yesses you eventually receive will feel entirely deserved and even easily earned.

We're all going to make it.
