This Episode Might Save Your Life | NYT Bestselling Author Tiffany Crum - Underline That | Lyssna här

Twenty years of writing, rejection, and perseverance. Two genres blended brilliantly. One literary success story even its author never saw coming!

This week on Underline That, I'm joined by the delightful Tiffany Crum, instant New York Times bestselling author of This Story Might Save Your Life—the wildly clever, twisty, romantic thriller that had me simultaneously holding my breath and kicking my feet.

But behind this seemingly overnight success? Two decades of hard work, creative reinvention, and the courage to finally write the book of her heart.

Tiffany and I get all the way into it! From the unexpected emotional whirlwind of becoming a breakout bestselling author to the beauty of breaking genre rules, we talk about what happens when your biggest literary dreams actually come true—and why success doesn't magically silence imposter syndrome.

We also dish on the extraordinary audiobook production (hiiii, Julia Whelan!), the power of Book of the Month and Bookstagram, the case for stepping away from social media, and whether an MFA is #worthit.

Plus, Tiffany shares the realities of writing under deadline, navigating the noise of publishing, and a little peek at what's coming next.

Trust me, you don't want to miss this one!

Happy listening, besties!
