Hi Friends,
If you are reading this, I’m probably on a plane. I’ll be on one almost every day from now until mid-November, getting from city to city in the US and even hopping across the Atlantic Ocean, to tour events. And even though air travel these days ranks up there with getting a root canal, I’m excited. Because…
1. She’s here! A bouncing, bright blue baby book. Welcome to the world, Hollow Bones!
2. And because I know I’m going to meet many of you along the way. Last week when my publicists and I were going over tour details, I said that I have never in my life seen or heard about another publishing tour quite like this. It feels more like a party than a book tour, and I feel more like a rock star than an author. I can promise you that if you come to one of my events, you’ll have a terrific time — and you’ll walk away with a signed book, a professional photo, and a small thank-you gift. Here are some of the venues where there are still tickets.
This is actually the most nerve-wracking part of a publication. I’ve done everything I can to give you the best story possible in this moment. So has my publishing team — from editing to promotion to organizing the tour to getting the book mentioned by influencers and podcasters and TV hosts. The sales team has made sure it will be available anywhere you want to purchase it, in all formats.(Special shout-out to the audio version of Hollow Bones, in which one of the three narrators is the incomparable Julia Whelan — that’s a bucket list goal for me!) But you, the readers, are the final part of the equation. This is the point where my story becomes your story.
I hope you love it. And maybe even more than that, I hope it sparks conversations we need to be having about the burdens placed on mothers, about failures in women’s postpartum health care, and about who we trust to keep us safe.
Here’s to Hollow Bones — my thirtieth novel. ❤️
XO,
Jodi
