135: Chat with Mikki Brammer

In today’s episode, I’m joined by bestselling author Mikki Brammer to talk all about her highly anticipated new novel, Good Joy, Bad Joy. After the incredible success of her debut, The Collected Regrets of Clover, Mikki shares what it really looked like behind the scenes to bring her second book to life—from pivoting mid-process to embracing the slower, messier reality of writing.We dive into her approach to storytelling, the pressures (and expectations) of the publishing world, and how she’s learned to stay grounded and “go with the flow” through it all. Mikki also opens up about the role grief plays in both of her novels, offering thoughtful insight and meaningful advice on how we can better support others navigating loss.And be sure to stick around—there’s a special audio clip from our conversation waiting for you at the end of the episode.Website: https://www.mikkibrammer.com/IG: @mikkibrammer
