N.I.C.U Poetry Book... Shot Down

I wrote a book based on the Roller Coaster of Emotions I went through while trying to save this little guy's life called "The N.I.C.U. Roller Coaster: Poems and Prayers for the Parents of Preemies" I turned in a sample of 3 of the poems and 3 pix to a publisher...and just based on those 3 poems I got a 2 page letter nit-picky letter from the editor detailing every little thing that was wrong with it... right down to the semi colon use! Yikes... when you're fighting for someones life, I guess you're not that conscious of the difference between commas and semi-colons... funny thing my editor didn't catch it. Oh well, I just have to remind myself this is one person's opinion. I know there is much in the book that people need to hear to get them through the tough time of having a premature child. Now one in every eight babies are now born early. The audience is there, just need to find the right publisher who can see past the minor things to see the deeper message.
