Amanda Eyre Ward, ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES + Laura Lekkos, ALL THE LITTLE WAYS

Zibby welcomes New York Times bestselling author Amanda Eyre Ward back on the podcast to discuss ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES, a transporting novel that reunites readers with the beloved family from THE JETSETTERS. Amanda shares the real-life inspiration behind the story—from interviewing romance scammers and drawing on her own experiences being scammed to writing about complicated family dynamics, mental illness, addiction, sibling relationships, and travel.

Zibby also sits down with debut novelist and screenwriter Laura Lekkos to discuss ALL THE LITTLE WAYS, a heartfelt novel about two expectant mothers whose unlikely friendship is tested by a shocking twist. Laura reflects on the inspiration she found in motherhood, mommy groups, and female friendship, shares her journey from screenwriting to fiction, and offers a behind-the-scenes look at adapting bestselling books for film while balancing a busy career and family life.
