Jojo reveals the inspiration behind this novel and explains why she had to take some serious time off (3.5 years!) before writing it. After 10 years of overworking herself and reaching a breaking point, she finally learned how to take a step back and prioritize herself. The two also discuss Jojo’s persistence (she wrote 8 books before having a bestseller!), her incredible talent for weaving humor and grief into her writing, the book that recently made her cry, and her best advice for writers.“A heartwarming, humorous and oh-so-human story.”—Zibby Owens for Good Morning AmericaPurchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3DPgnt0Subscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.** If you enjoy recommending things you love and even earning from it, you have to become a creator on ShopMy!
