2026 Debut Author Spotlight

November 11, 2026 · 1 h 11 min

Show notes

We're so excited for our third annual debut author spotlight! We spoke with four amazing writers about their novels, and asked them to share their debut experiences!

Our Guests (and their books!)

Elizabeth Wellington Rollins, author of The Three Graces of Pearl Street

Alli Hoff Kosik, author of Too Blessed To Stress

Miranda Shulman, author of Harmless

Amanda Gayle, author of Once, Again, Always

Plus a note for listeners! If you order The Three Graces of Pearl Street through any independent bookstore before New Year's Day, you'll get access to a special bonus chapter. And if you purchase copies specifically through Yankee Bookshop by December 9, 2026, each novel will also be signed, personalized, gift wrapped, and shipped with a mini cookbook. (Yankee Bookshop ships nationwide.)
