When we are querying, we often think about what it will feel like to get an offer of representation and become agented. But what happens when we are in the “in-between” period from agent offer to representation decision? In this episode, Aaliyah Paolucci, Lindsay Beck, and Danielle Render Turmaud discuss what this period felt like for them, the excitement, the joy, the anxiety, the fear, all of it. We get real. We get raw. And we hope it speaks to you in your journey.You, Me, and the Writing Journey (X, Instagram, and BlueSky): @YMWJPodcastPodcast Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://danielleturmaud9.wixsite.com/danielle-render-turm/you-me-the-writing-journey-podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Aaliyah Paolucci (Author): Aaliyah Paolucci, who also goes by her pen name A.
