I never once had any doubt my book would be published, even when I was turned down by the publisher who I thought would take my work in just a matter time.
I was wrong. So I set out and sent new submissions, this time to indie publishers. I was turned down by one and accepted by another who's contract I did not like. So I turned them down (That felt good.)
Today I'm in the hands of the publisher of my choice :)It took a little convincing work on my behave and I added some sugar and honey to my requests. It was all worth it and I'd do it again.
My advice: Never stop trying, and if you're turned down, find out why, ask what you can do to help publish your book with the publisher that turned you down. Build a relationship to other authors and network with them (Very Important!) have them look over your work/query letter and synopsis.
