Heavens to Betsy! I don’t often like to talk about my own writing on this blog, but this is the kind of out-of-the blue moment that perhaps bears sharing. My second novel, The Wednesday Sisters—published in 2008–got very little attention from the press. After it hit the San Francisco Chronicle bestseller list, they did a little profile, but that’s about it. It has sold very well due to word of mouth from booksellers, bloggers, and plain old-fashioned readers (thank you, anyone who is reading this and talked it up!). But now, six and a half years later, it’s one of Entertainment Weekly‘s essential best friend novels of all time, along with the likes of The Three Musketeers, Harry Potter, and Mary McCarthy’s The Group. How about that?!
