[Jacquelyn Mitchard, what's next]: Owning your jealousy of other writers + gobs of amazing book recommendations Ep 1079

In part three of my conversation with multiple New York Times bestselling author Jacquelyn Mitchard, author of "A Very Inconvenient Scandal" and "The Deep End of the Ocean," among many other titles, we talk about how having writer friends is so important, even if you "jealous them", the vision of the future that's fueling her to keep writing, and the recent books that made her swoon.

- The writers--and books--that make Jacquelyn jealous (a word that she uses as a verb, as in, "I'm jealousing her."

- Her love for British crime shows, including the ones that are currently keeping her up way too late

- The BBC podcast she's addicted to

- The beauty of enjoying nature--through a window

- The saying on the mug that she brought home from the Erma Bombeck conference that is her current motto

- The songs Jacquelyn listens to when she needs a pick-me-up

- The meal "that's probably 2,000 calories per bite" that she would ask for if someone said they would make her anything she wanted
