Show Notes

It’s time for our annual Holiday Wishes episodes!

Every year I connect with listeners around the world, where we talk about books, wishes, and bad jokes. So this time of year, my guests are…all of you!

In this set of wishes, we’ve got classics, new mysteries, and series romances. And we’ve got Sapphic yearning!

I have a record number of people signed up to do holiday wishes conversations with me, and these episodes are so uplifting and delightful, I’m extremely excited.

And! There is still time to sign up! If you’re part of the Podcast Patreon or After Dark, you can still pick a time to connect with me.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
