#1 New York Times bestselling author Jacquelyn Mitchard joins Zibby to discuss her latest novel, The Good Son, and the brief interaction at a writer's conference that inspired it. The two talk about the unreasoning love parents have for their children, what Jacquelyn's experience was like raising nine kids, and the project she is working on next. Jacquelyn also shares what the experience was like being chosen as Oprah's first book club pick, from almost missing the opportunity when she didn't believe Oprah was really calling her to what it was like to be a part of a massive literary phenomenon.
