This week we talk to an author and poet whose two books releasing in 2023 cover subjects so incredibly worthy of investigation and exploration. As of the episode drop date, Jessica Whipple's Enough Is... is a week away from release, and deals with a concept we all could stand to grasp a bit better.  I Think I Think A Lot releases in August of this year and is similarly special and personal in its subject matter, drawing from Jessica's own personal journey through OCD. We'll cover with Jessica where these books come from and where she hopes they touch families' hearts, but first we'll talk about a cool vintage secretary's desk, and how Jessica misses querying? ------ Mentioned in this episode is Bitsy Kemper's resource on publishers open to unagented submissions in her blog! ------ Our reviews for the week: LINUS THE LITTLE YELLOW PENCIL by Scott Magoon  MASTERPIECE by Alexandra Hoffman, illustrated by Beatriz Mello  ELBERT IN THE AIR by Monica Wesolowska, illustrated by Jerome Pumphrey  ------ Find more on ou
