Wishing you the best on your book tour. Wouldn't it would be something if Tucker launched his Twitter show with an interview of you and discussing your book?

Next book? I just wrote a Substack about the book I can't find. How to teach my soon to be six year old what used to be called comportment. How to act like a lady. I want to prepare her to be

(1) a competent human being, i.e., workplace functional, as well as

(2) a satisfied and satisfying wife and mother.

How do my wife and I gently guide her into womanhood? Get her to be polite. Not be too clingy. Have the poise to talk easily with adults.

We have a lot of time. OTOH, my previous wife did not consider it a priority or take the time. A major reason for the divorce was that those two daughters did not learn to treat their father - or any man - with respect. Their lives were a disaster. Past tense - one just died of a "cause unknown."

I just gave a speech - posted on my Substack - repeating Schneider and Fein's wisdom from "The Rules." What I'm looking for would be the fifteen year prequel.

Will you write that book?

“ How did this happen to a trad housewife in Southern California?”

Because your insights are, well, keen, and your writing is entertaining and tongue-in-cheek culturaly hip, with phrases like “my live unboxing.” IMHO.

Darn, I coulda offered to be your sensitivity reader. Then again, I guess you would've blushed at all my cuss words.

Best of luck, hope it sells like hotcakes (might want to use that idiom in your next book, it's cutting edge).

This child of the 80s is getting a reboot of the sensational experience of taping a radio hit off the boom box, not seeing a headshot on the album, and being allowed to stay up late enough to see the singer on Letterman because it’s summer. I’m super stoked for you!!!!! Can’t wait for your reveal! This piece is so cool and honestly incredibly informative in terms of perspective and persistence for any writer.

The process of bringing your book to market (“Copyediting, proofreading, cover design, and collecting of the blurbs”). Thankfully, your publisher did not require the “voluntary” use of a “sensitivity reader”, as all major mainstream publishers now do! Hurray for allowing the AUTHOR to decide content, rather than some random woke purity tester.

"(For the record, I spelled Tawny’s last name without having to Google it. I don’t know if that’s sad or funny.)"

Off the record, I hadt'a ̶G̶o̶o̶g̶l̶e̶ ̶ duck duck to find out who Tawny was.

I already know who you are, but of course, will keep it a secret until you reveal it on national media. You get to practice on my small podcast first. I'll give you a few tips. :)
