AFRAID TO TAKE RISKS? TRY THIS | Ty Allan Jackson

About this episode

How many times would you let the world tell you no before you gave up on your dream? After submitting his manuscript to 147 agents and being rejected 147 times, today's guest not only learned how to publish his books himself but also sold 300,000 of them.

Ty's journey into the world of children's literature began unexpectedly, leading him to become a prominent figure in promoting reading among youth.

In this conversation, you'll hear Ty’s tactical advice on getting your work into the hands of the right people, how to mentally move past rejection and use it as a driving force, and why he believes that adventure is always on the other side of risk.
