I think one of Parker's problems is that he's never been
rejected. He wrote GODWULF in about a year, if I remember
correctly, and sold it to the first publisher he showed it to
in about three weeks. Since then, he's pretty much had his
novels sold before he wrote them. And he takes less and less
time to write each one.
I think a rejection slip might do him some good. At least, I
keep telling myself that mine are doing me some good.
