Ep 142: Becky Albertalli

Becky Albertalli, New York Times bestselling author of LEAH ON
THE OFF BEAT, SIMON VERSUS THE HOMO SAPIENS AGENDA, and co-author
of WHAT IF IT’S US, with Adam Silvera, due out in October. Becky
talks about how seeing Simon become a movie made her want to
write more cinematically, how good AND bad news can be paralyzing
while you are revising on deadline, her number one OTP, and
retconning her own series and characters.
