You've accomplished so much this year. Keep writing! I love getting the email that says you've uploaded something new. Your community will continue to grow in 2024!!!
Wow, your poem was spot on. Thank you for your vulnerability. Look at that amazing list of things you did this year!!!! This made me look at my own “unfortunatelies” of the year a little differently.
I love this. I've also had many rejections in 2023, but so encouraged by the fact that I was brave enough to try for the first time! So good to see that's your mindset too. Hope your story ends up in the world :)
Also, your cracks line harkens to a children's book (I believe it was the 2018 Caldecott winner) called After the Fall. I believe Dan Santat is the author/illustrator. :)

Can’t wait to read more from you in 2024.
I wrote this to console myself after one of those rejections, so I'm glad it can encourage you too!
I love this, Jill! You inspire me!!
Thank you!

"Even a delicate landing is felt."
Yes. Cracks on an egg shell.
Thank you for sharing those delicate landings with us. Hoping for more cracks in 2024.
I am going to be thinking about the implications of making cracks for the rest of the day. And meeting you this year was a highlight!
The feeling is so very mutual.

Yes! My kids brought that book home. Thank you for this encouragement, Callie!
