Six months ago, at this hour, I was sitting in the NBC green room, about to go on the Today Show with Hoda and Jenna to talk about RBC. I was so nervous and nauseous I couldn’t even sip water. In some ways, feels like a lifetime ago...the last six months have truly been transformative for me both professionally and personally, and I hope I never forget this whirlwind season. I owe it all to you. To everyone who picked up a copy of my book and read it. To those who bought it or borrowed it from a library or had it passed on from a friend. To the booksellers and librarians who have so enthusiastically recommended RBC to readers. To my amazing team at @eccobooks and agent extraordinaire @agentkristinnla and everyone at @readwithjenna. To the readers and bookstagrammers who have DM’d and reviewed and made reels (and if I haven’t replied yet, I’m sorry, and please know I will do my very best to do so eventually! Perpetually behind, party of one here.) I am so very thankful for every one of you. Settling in with my coffee to do some writing before the holiday chaos descends. With in-person events done for the year, I’m looking forward to getting lots of work done on this next book before hitting the road again in February (Savannah!) and spending lots of time snuggled up with my kiddos. #remarkablybrightcreatures #debutnovel #debutauthor
