Guest host Julie Chavez interviews Nicole Baart about The Long Way Back, a twisty, atmospheric thriller about an Instagram-famous mother-daughter duo living a picture-perfect life in their vintage Airstream trailer… until the daughter goes missing. Nicole describes her life with five children (four teens!!), the inspiration behind this novel (it involves her own cross-country trip in a trailer), and the evolution of her writing over the last 15 years. She also reveals how writing started for her at the age of five (a tragic backstory with a happy ending) and then shares her best advice for aspiring authors.Purchase on Zibby's Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3OmBn04Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3rusSH7Subscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.** Follow @totallybookedwithzibby on Instagram for listening guides and more. **(Music by Morning Moon Music.
