In this episode I sit down with bestselling author Sandy Malone for a fun and inspiring conversation about her writing career, the stories that have captured readers’ hearts, and what exciting projects she has coming next. Sandy shares the journey behind her popular Gem of the Golden Isle series, which begins with Escape to Jekyll Island, and discusses why the charm, beauty, and close knit communities of Georgia’s Golden Isles continue to inspire her work. Sandy also gives us a preview of her upcoming novel, Thicker Than Blood, which is set to be released this fall. While details are still being finalized, she shares her excitement about bringing another story into the world and what the publishing process looks like behind the scenes. We discuss the realities of being an author, balancing creativity with deadlines, and the anticipation that comes with preparing a new release. In addition, Sandy introduces her brand new series, Under the Oaks, a crossover from her Jekyll Island books that expands into neighboring St. Simons Island. Centered around a wedding planning company, the new series promises fresh characters, familiar connections, romance, community, and all the coastal charm readers have come to love from her novels. Whether you're already a fan of Sandy's books or discovering her work for the first time, this episode offers a wonderful look into her creative world and all the exciting stories readers can look forward to in the coming months.
