Show Notes

Monica Heisey's year began with the January publication of Really Good, Actually, her debut novel, and finished with the launch of Smothered, a television series she co-created and wrote.


Really Good, Actually was loved by both critics and readers thanks to its sharp writing and frighteningly accurate portrayal of life in the immediate aftermath of a big break-up. It also gives great insight into what it's like to get a divorce when your friends have barely entered the serious relationship space.


Smothered is a six-part romantic comedy which has also been a hit with the critics, and me, tbh. It's smart and charming and filled with great jokes and brilliant performances. I'm waiting for the series two announcement.


In this episode, Monica and I discuss these projects and also the challenge of having a great professional year when it's not going so well in your personal life.
