In this episode, we’re back from Nashville with stories to tell—yes, including a fender bender. Andrea recaps a recent book event, and we shine the spotlight on bestselling author Carley Fortune. From lakeside nostalgia to film deals with royalty, her journey is one for the books. Then we dive into our own work-in-progress and pitch each other some new plot ideas. Could this be our breakthrough chapter?
