I'm the author of the novels When You Read This (Indie Next Pick and “Best Book of 2019” by Good Housekeeping), Privilege (Today.com “Best Summer Read”), and Palm Beach (New York Post “Best Book of 2021” and “like a sandy beach, equal parts beautiful and uncomfortable” according to the Associated Press). My memoir, You Might Feel A Little Pressure, was released by Third Rail Press in 2025. My books have been published in 13 countries, and I've written for the New York Times, The Atlantic, Slate, and more. I founded an MFA-alternative, The Book Incubator, which has now helped hundreds of writers finish their books over 12 months and continues supporting them through publication (yes, forever!). When I’m not writing, I’m probably building a fort with my 7-year-old son Finn or bathing with an overpriced Lush bath bomb. I live in Dallas, where I spend my free time trying to domesticate a stubborn tabby and shamelessly watching reality TV. ======================== Social: Instagram:   / book.incubator   ======================== #writingtips #bookwriting #writer #authortube Check Out Our Other Videos: ======================== Conflict in Fiction: 4 Great Tips For Aspiring Writers -    • Conflict in Fiction: 4 Great Tips For Aspi...   5 Books Every Writer Needs to Read! -    • 5 Books Every Writer Needs to Read!   First Draft Pharmacy: Why Are My Characters Flat? -    • First Draft Pharmacy: Why Your Characters ...
