Rejection Slip, Life
- Description:
- A sampling of the rejection slips Haycox received while he was attempting to publish his first stories. Later he ceremoniously gave them to his teacher W.F.G. Thacher saying, "Let the collection grow. Let it be the proud boast of Oregon writers that they have actual, bona fide, written rejections from every magazine in America...once having broken through and disposed of a yarn for cash monies, they can brag to the ceiling of the world about their early disappointments." Ernest Haycox Papers, Coll. 164
