I have been fortunate to publish a few papers. I have been even more successful at collecting rejection letters.
At my current rate, I collect about one rejection letter every 2.7 months. I expect this number to improve as I submit more ambitiously. This page exists because CVs have a survivorship bias problem. Someone should publish the other side. Might as well be me.
If this page makes you feel better about your own career, it has served its purpose.
