When she decided to write a palate cleanser novel in a completely different genre – with a brand new pen name – Alexa Rivers had no idea she would have a hit on her hands. In this interview she talks about why she wrote the book, how she picked the new pen name, the marketing she did, and how a book she wasn’t expecting to do much at all… kinda did awesome. 🙂 She also talks about the ups and downs of her journey with TikTok, and gives some great pieces of advice for everyone to use! 

SHOW NOTES:

Alexa Rivers writes about genuine characters living messy, imperfect lives and earning hard-won happily ever afters. She shares a house with a neurotic dog and a husband who thinks he’s hilarious.
