Our Nerdiest Thing

Hello, fellow nerds! We had the opportunity to chat with the hilarious Steffanie Blais, author of Ever the Same, Strange Love, and her new book Tainted Love, which releases next Thursday!
You can listen/watch this entire episode wherever you listen to podcasts or on YouTube. Link in bio.
Steffanie Blais is a sarcastic overachiever who attempts to find humor in all situations.
She loves to write romantic dramedies and thrillers. Her books include some twists, some heartache, and some laughs.
Steffanie prefers to write about characters that are relatable and flawed. As such, you won’t find perfect heroes and heroines in her books, but you might find your best friend, cousin, boss, or even yourself.
Steffanie believes that everyone can have the happily ever after they deserve.
Listen in as we chat more about Steffanie’s books, her love of the 80’s, and her other upcoming projects. Be sure to follow her @author_steffanieblais
