Don’t despair first and foremost. Rejection sucks but when all else fails you might have to end up doing it yourself.

How many pages are the rejection letters? After a point I’d hope they’d at least give you some notes. Maybe your brain is pausing the second book until you get some kind of resolution on the first? Perhaps I shouldn’t be using question marks this way?
The third book should just be an anthology of your many original stories.
BTW the actual reason something is rejected often isn’t even what you think: https://www.smbc-comics.com/?id=3266

There’s a question I’d love to see answered. I’m still stuck on my first serious book.

I say let the Ukrainians have some fun. They’ve had a tough time of it lately.

Even better, a bunch of Ukrainians get to enjoy the story as well, since they’re already listening to all the recordings “for quality assurance purposes” anyway.

I LOVE this!

At my age I’d be happy for any pussy that comes my way.  Also, I vaguely remember an old manga about a young man who saves a cat’s life but gets badly injured in the process, so the Cat Goddess turns the cat into a young girl to thank him “properly,” whatever that means.* Hopefully your kindness will be appreciated in some nice way too.
 * I just can’t resist!

You accidentally stroke a belly
“BAKA!” *four sets of claws sink in.

There's a few animes like that. One also has a grandiose swordswoman adorably scared of lightning that the protagonist always thought was a man.

I turned out to be the weird one cause I didn’t know what that meant.
and I gave her best friend a hug. Cause apparently not everyone sleeps with their friends.

At least it didn’t suggest “a pickup truck,” which would mean your phone thinks you use people. No, it sounds like your phone think’s you’re a nice guy and wants you to be happy.

or “friends with Phoebe, Ross, Rachel, Chandler, Joey and Monica” or it would mean your phone thinks you need to really over-specify 15 year ended sitcoms.

*Dies laughing*
I want your phone, George, I really do!  

Thanks, everybody! 

Happy Birthday, George.  

Happy Birthday!

I just count decades. It’s much easier, you need far fewer candles on the cake, and it takes ten years for me to get older. 
Oh, and happy birthday!   

Unless you're a tree counting your rings, time is arbitrary. Still, I'm glad you're still around to share your imagination and wisdom. Just remember to make your celebration more about the people in your life — because they get to decide where to put you when you're old.
Have an awesome day and thoroughly enjoy this next solar cycle.
