Keep building on your good stuff. Sometimes it's just for practice. Sometimes no one is interested.

Once I wrote a thank you letter to a prospective employer for an interview. A year later I got a phone call and it was the new owner of the business. He found my letter in his desk and as it happened he needed a manager. So I interviewed, again and I got the job.

It's good character to thank people so if you keep working and gracefully thank those who appreciate your work you will be a respected and appreciated Stacker.

Also, once you acknowledge the good or bad result, get back to work. The work is the reward.
