Another newsletter about book publishing?

My name's Leigh (it rhymes with bee). I've been extremely online since the late '90s and I owe my writing career to the internet. I'm the author of five books, including the critically acclaimed satirical novel Self Care.

In this newsletter, I explore how the internet is impacting traditional book publishing and what's expected of authors.

You may know me as the writer who wrote the viral BookTok article in February 2023, or as the author of the very first "death of the girlboss" piece, which was one of the top 10 most read stories on Medium in 2020. Perhaps you heard me on Nora McInerny's podcast Terrible, Thanks for Asking, talking about how I could have qualified for a scholarship to my own feminist writing conference.

You can also find me on TikTok, Instagram, and Threads.
