Hi Gail, big fan! I was wondering if you wouldn't mind explaining what an 'unsolicited script' is? I keep hearing the phrase being thrown around and I'm not entirely sure of it's meaning. And while i'm asking, what does it matter if a script is solicited

Well, it matters completely. A solicited script means the publisher asked for it, an unsolicited one means they did not. So if a script is unsolicited, it means they did not ask for it and most likely will not even look at it.
