I got a text from my agent today while I was white-knuckle driving through a wintery mix situation. I didn't read it —because driving — but I saw many many exclamation points on my watch... and the words @usatoday.com
First time! Thank you, booksellers, librarians, readers!

Great interview with @bryonquertermous.com (BQ&A. Adorable.) I do some name dropping and float an early working theory that is gonna blow open the plotter/pantser dichotomy.

This. It's OK if your writing doesn't save lives. It's OK if your writing only saves you.
If you're a writer, wondering why you should bother writing with the world on fire. It feels like it's not important, I need you to understand that it is.
Even if it is just because it keeps you moving forward? Even if it only brings YOU joy, that gives you energy to fight & survive.

Relaxed, but charming--just like Lori Rader-Day her ownself. The cover art is almost as delicious as the writing.
A relaxed launch day for Wreck Your Heart. I put country music books for kids in the local little free libraries and then talked to Susanna Calkins about Dahlia Devine and country in Chicago at The Book Stall. I love talking to Susie, always fun.
