Patty Lin, END CREDITS: How I Broke Up with Hollywood

Zibby Books author alert!!! Zibby interviews debut author Patty Lin about End Credits: How I Broke Up with Hollywood, a funny, fresh, and eye-opening memoir about her ten-year TV writing career–which was not what she had dreamed it to be. Patty shares what it was like to endure such a crushing work culture, manage her immigrant parents’ expectations, date a workaholic, and ultimately, walk away from the industry. She also shares what life has been like since breaking up with Hollywood (it involves sewing, supporting the writers’ strike, and writing this exceptional book). Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3YTW0UQShare, rate, & review the podcast, and follow Zibby on Instagram @zibbyowens!** Want more?
