Gilmore To Read: Riss M Neilson Wrote Rory & Tristan Fanfic Before She Wrote A Bestseller

Welcome back to Gilmore To Read! This month, I'm talking to Riss M Neilson, the author of Reading Is Sexy's July pick A Love Like The Sun. She's the author of two young adult novels, now an adult romance and a lover of Gilmore Girls just like you! In this episode, we talk about writing young adult versus adult romance, how fanfiction can shape an author, what her teenage daughter thinks about the show (cue mother/daughter sweetness!!!) and of course why she wrote such a hot male lead in the midst of a chronically ill heroine's journey. I hope you enjoy, book besties! The next episode will feature Jessica Joyce talking about her newest release, The Ex Vows, which is Reading Is Sexy's pick for August.

Om Podcasten

Oy with the recap podcasts already! Your favorite Gilmore Girls TikTokers, Tara (@tarallew) and Haley (@gilmoregirlygirl), are on opposing teams (Team Jess & Team Logan) but every week they come together to take you beyond the recap to discuss everything Gilmore: from themes and characters to parallels and plot holes and every cup of coffee in between. Gilmore to Say is a love letter to a show that everyone is still binge-watching almost 24 autumns later. Whether you've watched Gilmore Girls once, every fall, or fall asleep to it every night, Gilmore to Say is for you. Follow along and they’ll lead you to aha moments, disagreements over boyfriends, cry fests about well-written storylines, and unending laughter that sometimes starts before Tara and Haley even introduce themselves. These girlies have been watching this show since before they were old enough to attend Chilton. Now that they’re approaching Lorelai’s age, they’ve realized they have more to say. Where you lead?
