What happens in the group chat stays in the group chat . . . until it doesn't. And I WILL be elaborating . . . In these 262 pages.

When you get a text with a HEARTFELT love note but it's meant for someone with the same name as your EX best friend.

Bye Forever, I Guess against a blue sky and green grass.

That feeling when the group chat leaks and everyone finds out what you said about them.

Hey folks. You probably know @celestepewter.bsky.social through her work on social media and off, helping people engage with democracy. Maybe you've even used her call scripts before! Well, she's going through some hard times right now, and could use some help. If you can, please give and/or share!

Oh, it’s happened in real life! I still feel so guilty about it. Now, I make people write their names for me. On paper. It’s not foolproof (me-proof), but it helps a lot. 😅

I had a nightmare that I signed a book incorrectly at an event. The bookseller replaced the book and I tried again. That one was worse: ”Haqqy Reading!“ instead of “Happy Reading!” in huuuge letters, and I started sobbing. 😭😭😭

The ebook for THE ORPHAN QUEEN is only 1.99 right now, so if you want a book about a secret princess trying to take back her kingdom while a masked vigilante is hunting her (and oh no, he's hot!), now's a good time to give it a try.

If you ask a panel of authors whether a new writer should edit while they draft or wait until the manuscript is finished, you’ll get a whole range of answers. Yes. No. Absolutely not. And idk it’s up to you. Here’s how to decode that. jodimeadows.substack.com/p/should-wri...

Should writers edit while drafting? Or finish the book first?

this will shock you, but: it depends

A bit over two years ago, while Confessions From the Group Chat was sub to my editor, we had a guy come over to look at the foundation problem in the basement. He gave us the price. 😰 I texted my agent that I was adding a basement crack to my book. 😬

Writing is so weird. One day you're a genius. The next day, you're basically someone who scribbles on the walls with mud.
