- Stay tuned, WITH OR WITHOUT YOU, my 12th novel is coming August 4, 2020 from Algonquin. My 11th novel CRUEL BEAUTIFUL WORLD is an Indie Next Pick. IS THIS TOMORROW was an May Indie Pick. I'm also the New York Times bestselling author of PICTURES OF YOU, a San Francisco Chronicle Lit Pick, a Costco "Pennie's Pick." a NAIBA bestseller and on the Best Books of 2011 List from San Francisco Chronicle, Providence Journal, Kirkus Reviews and Bookmarks Magazine. I'm the recipient of a New York Foundation of the Arts Grant in Fiction. I was a 2013 finalist in the Sundance Screenwriting Lab and a finalist in the Nickelodeon Screenwriting Fellowship, four of my novels were optioned for screen, and I talked my way into writing the script for two of them. My essay, HIgh Infidelity, has been optioned for film. I'm a book critic for The San Francisco Chronicle and People Magazine. I teach novel writing for UCLA Extension Writers' Program, and Stanford online, do private fiction editing, and I am a professional namer! I live with my husband, writer/editor Jeff Tamarkin and we beam with pride about our son, an actor/filmmaker in college. Visit me at http://www.carolineleavitt.com.

Great interview! Thanks for sharing.
Hi Caroline. Huge congratulations on selling BREATHE to Algonquin!
Hi Caroline!
Great interview! And I don't know what Jeff is talking about...you sounds perfectly normal to me :) Oh! What does that say?

Great interview. I feel so validated to hear that you revise and revise and throw chapters out, because I do, too! (well, I keep a file and tell myself I'll use them in something else because otherwise I couldn't bear to part with them). YAY!
Who said you could sell a novel behind my back?
Thank you all for the lovely comments. And Jeff Lyons, I wear my badge of neurosis proudly. PJ, you are such a hoot!
