REJECTS

REJECTS
   Some of science fiction’s best writers received their share of rejection slips.Doubleday initially turned down Isaac Asimov's Foundation trilogy as well as his I, Robot.In 1953, John Campbell rejected Hal Clement's Mission of Gravity for publication in Astounding because he felt that it would not divide naturally for serialization. He changed his mind after Frederik Pohl divided it into three parts.After Samuel R. Delany won the NebulaAwards for two consecutive novels, his experimental novel Dhalgren was rejected by several publishers. When Bantam finally published Dhalgren in 1975, it became a word-of-mouth bestseller.
