About this episode

The episode discusses the significance of the word 'yet' in the context of hope and perseverance in the face of rejection from literary agents.

On Saturday, I remarked to some friends of mine that I’ve spent nearly a year querying literary agents for my romantic comedy, and no one wants to represent me. One of my friends chimed in, “yet. No one wants to represent you yet .”That word snagged my attention because there’s so much hope and faith wrapped up in three letters.
