Guest host Alisha Fernandez Miranda interviews debut author Sarah Zachrich Jeng about The Other Me, a mind-bending speculative thriller about a Chicago-based artist who suddenly finds herself living an alternate life in her Michigan hometown. Sarah talks about her brief career as a rockstar, her fan-fiction gateway into the writing world, and her character-development process. She also describes her publishing journey (it all started on Twitter’s Pitch Wars!), her tricks for balancing writing, parenting, and a full-time job, and the “book two syndrome” she is currently experiencing as she works on her second project.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: bit.ly/3hMhBxkBookshop: bit.ly/3FQ3YVVSubscribe 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.
