This episode is for the days when the silence from agents feels personal, or when one quiet 'no' feels defeating.

We unpack one of the most persistent (and painful) writer thoughts: “If I were any good, it would have happened by now.'

But what if rejection isn’t a red flag? What if it’s just... part of the process?

In this pep talk, you’ll get a reframe that’s more helpful than 'just keep going,' and a reminder that your job isn’t to please everyone, it’s to outlast the part where they say no.

This one’s for the days when writing feels like yelling into the void... or when you’re pretty sure you’ve wasted three years on a book no one will ever read.

In this episode, we talk about neutral thinking—a brain shift that helps you stop catastrophising and start making quiet, doable progress again.

You don't have to pretend you're fine when you’re not but you can make small, steady mindset tweaks that will help you write when things feel hard.

You don’t have to love every minute! You just have to keep going
