ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This month, Marilee Albert is on the podcast; she’s a native Angeleno! I have to admit Marilee’s title pulled me in. Her new book is He’s Gotta Go. It’s a domestic thriller about marriage, money, and the fantasies we nurture just to survive another school pickup line. We chat about what it’s like to write collaboratively, solo, and whether none of that matters as AI comes for us all.
Let’s chat. I have *so* many questions. You can find Marilee Albert: Website: marileealbertbooks.com Instagram: @marileealbert Goodreads: Marilee_Albert
