Summary

Zibby Books author alert!!! Debut author Megan Tady joins Zibby to discuss Super Bloom, a sparkling, heartwarming novel about a massage therapist at an iconic Vermont spa who, while grieving the death of her boyfriend, agrees to supply a demanding and eccentric romance novelist with spa secrets for her next book... but is instead inspired to write her own. Meg describes the real-life spa trip that inspired this story and her long journey to publishing it (after years of editing, querying, and never giving up!). She also talks about her quirky characters and spa research, her fun book cover, the actual super bloom happening in California, and her next book!
