EEN ON TV, her main character, Adina Geller, takes that concept to the online magazine editor she’s trying to impress. He tells her to run with it.
She’s hell-bent to do just that in the hope that the fee from the article will not only allow her to pay the rent she shares with her loving single mother, Valerie but lead to a full-time job.

On my AUTHOR PROVOCATEUR podcast, Meredith and I discuss her process in concepting this romantic comedy.

What she says will resonate with those who write—and read—about happily ever afters.
