Project adjustments?

Today I received a second rejection letter, from the Center for Land Use Interpretation, for Accumulation #4. It seems important to the overall project to include these rejections, but I am rethinking the idea of not reproposing or redoing projects. For example, I have 4 applications out: if I get accepted to one I should be pretty happy, but then I have three failures that seem a bit glaring.

Part of the idea of tying these projects together was that they would help support each other in terms giving weight to individual projects. This might be a little misguided. So, should I retry rejected proposals elsewhere, under the same number, or under a new one? Either way it seems important to really think and write these proposals better, and maybe don't get too overzealous in trying to apply to too many things. Also, try not to put all my eggs in one basket, that basket being residencies and programs where others decide if I can do them- perhaps a book project or a web project are in order...

Good news too: Accumulation #1 is up! Images to be posted tomorrow.
