I couldn't resist popping by to say I loved this post. Jennifer Weiner is an incredible woman, and I am in awe of her kindness and generosity. I got so many notes from readers and other authors expressing the same feelings. The only thing I can try to do is pay it forward…and wonder how in the world I got so lucky!
Best wishes,
Sarah

Thanks for this post.

I know it's a pipe-dream, but imagine how well authors would do if there were people on salary actually working to promote their books, and we didn't need to just depend on the kindness of Weiners!

It's awesome to see such a successful author paying it back to someone just starting out.

Hopefully in an other post you'll tell us. Thanks for the great story. I loved it. I hope that one day I can get to a point that I can give back like the author you mentioned.

by Indu Sundaresan. And the best-selling author is Jodi Picoult.
