Today all four hosts sit down to discuss the realities of rejection. They share their own experiences with being turned down along with advice and tips on how to turn that into a learning strategy. They talk about what to keep in mind while waiting for responses, the pain of silent rejections and how they deal with negative comments and bad reviews. Finally, they encourage writers to know their "why", ask questions, build community and to become experienced instead of embittered (with a dash of rejection revenge!).Everything Cookbooks will be back in October with more episodes! Hosts: Kate Leahy + Molly Stevens + Kristin Donnelly + Andrea NguyenEditor: Abby Cerquitella MentionsEpisode 19: Do Cookbook Awards Matter? | Charlotte DruckmanSubstackJane Friedman Visit the Everything Cookbooks Bookshop to purchase a copy of the books mentioned in the showNo Meat Required by Alicia Kennedy
