Contemporary YA author, Joya Goffney is here, fresh off the release of her second novel, 'Confessions of an Alleged Good Girl' to tell us all about how her first book, 'Excuse Me While I Ugly Cry' went through the publishing rollercoaster and the challenges of writing something new after a very successful debut. We also talk about the struggles that come from outside of the writing like the publicity and interviews, and how she balances those with the rest of her life.Click here to find all of our guests' books as well as the desert island library over at bookshop.org.ZencastrClick on this referral link to get 30% off your first three months with Zencastr!Bookshop.orgSupport the show
