A few months ago, I got a text message from a friend: “I’m at a writing conference,” she typed, “listening to a panel of agents answer the question 'What are you looking for?' Kayla’s answer began: 'I’m looking for fearless curiosity.'” Kayla Lightner is a writer and a literary agent with Ayesha Panda Literary. Together we explored how she knows "fearless curiosity" when she sees it; how agents partner with and champion writers; what about the job makes her come alive -- and her scariest power; being an open and adventurous reader; the indulgence of centering our curiosity; and coming into her own professional power with fearless curiosity.
