Hi friend,
Well... On Monday, Overflowing Nothings and Threadbare Everythings was released into the wild, and you will NEVER believe what happened...

You most likely already know that my debut novel, Overflowing Nothings and Threadbare Everythings, is contemporary fiction about family, resilience, and hidden dangers.
As an indie author attempting all of this on my own for the first time, I had absolutely no idea what to expect. But I was never prepared for THIS...
I posted it on Instagram--somewhat anxiously. I, ironically, hate self-promotion--but friends, family, strangers, and people I haven’t spoken to in years started flooding the post with comments and likes. But then. Look...

People started buying it in DROVES. Sharing it with their friends and family. Recommending it to members of their book club. Which meant...





No matter your goals, whatever you want to achieve in life, you cannot be afraid to put yourself out there (especially in front of people you know in real life). It feels sooooo cringe--trust me, I know--but without my pre-orders, friends’ and family support, word of mouth, incredible ARC readers, and the support from strangers....


If you've already read it, please do email me and let me know thoughts! I'd also massively appreciate a review on Goodreads and on the website of your place of purchase 🥰 It helps so much more than you'll ever know.
Thanks, friend!
Speak soon,
Carly x
