We’ve lost Beatrice, our favorite thing in the world. I got to hold her and tell her I loved her as she passed, to thank her for loving me and napping with me and making my heart bigger and showing me how maternal I can be. We loved everything about her—her body, her hunger, her attitude, how she had to be involved with everything with us all the time, on us, touching us, butting her head into bathroom doors to guard us while we peed and showered and then her body was so bodacious we could never get the shower door back open. One time she jumped up on the table and ate a whole cake. When we had parties she would stalk the house like a predator, panting and wild eyed, bc food was around and she had to have it. She loved her daycare but ignored other dogs so I always wondered why she dragged me inside when we got there and came home so exhausted. Recently, I found out they let her hang out and snooze behind the front desk most of the day bc the dog area was “too much for her.” She was so ridiculous and I’m shattered she won’t ever bask in the sun or get her lip stuck on her teeth again. Snuggle up in the nook of my knees. Refuse to walk and eat first and second breakfasts and dinners. She lived like she would live forever and she was such a fighter and I’ll always take that with me. Thank you for loving her too, it brought me pure joy to share her with you on here. If you have a favorite memory of her I want to hear it. Talking about her and looking at pictures of her is all I want to do right now. 🐝 💔

Some happy news. Meet Franklin, the new man in my life. I sat down in the grass and he crawled into my lap and lightening didn’t strike us dead, so Beatrice must approve. We have some travel coming up so we won’t take him home until we are back on the west coast. His foster mommy said he’s the sweetest boy and she’s happy to keep him until then. Once again, @socalbulldogrescue was a dream to work with. They have so many precious doggos up for adoption right now, and they are not one of those rescues that just wants to foist any dog on you. They really take their time to get to know you and make sure it’s true love. The house has been so lonely without Beatrice plodding around it, and we are so excited to welcome Frank the Tank home.

When I read this part in the transcript I wanted to throw my computer across the room!
The good news: Bright Young Women is now publishing September 19th, three weeks earlier than the original pub date. There isn’t really bad news, just the reality of publishing a book in 2023, with so many more prominent book clubs than there were when I published Luckiest Girl Alive in 2015 and The Favorite Sister in 2018. Book club picks are fate changers, we all want it and some of us really whore ourselves out trying to get it—couldn’t be me—but there are SO MANY MORE new releases than there are opportunities to be selected. As a result, publishers have started to shuffle around pub dates in an attempt to give your book the best shot possible at cutting through the noise and connecting with readers. My old pub date landed on the same day book club picks are revealed, and the fear is that Bright Young Women could get lost in the fanfare of those announcements. So we’ve made the executive decision to push up the pub date, and because you’ve obviously already preordered, may I ask that you share this far and wide in the hopes of reaching those who have not? I cannot stress enough how much preordering helps raise the profile of the book so that more readers can ultimately find it. As always, link to preorder in my bio. ❤️
