We recovered from FESTIVALITIS just long enough to record this decidedly scrappy episode with lots of laughs and a good deal of name-dropping! *cough cough* Ann Cleeves *cough cough* Garry Disher...

In this episode:

💛 Jacq manages to surprise us all

💛 Jo has VERY EXCITING news (no, it isn’t a movie deal)

💛 Fiona wrote more than Jo and Jacq combined but did she hit her goal?

We also shout out to @prakky who wrote a BLOG POST about us. You can’t buy that level of fame! We share what we did @terroraustralisfestival last week (what happens in the Huon Valley…) and disclose that awesome game-changing #AnnCleeves writing advice we learned in her Masterclass.
