Sara Goodman Confino is the bestselling author of five novels: Don’t Forget to Write, Behind Every Good Man, She’s Up to No Good, For the Love of Friends, and the upcoming Good Grief. After spending more years than she’s willing to publicly admit teaching high school English and journalism, she is currently writing full time and trying to make a living off of the crazy stories in her head. She lives in Montgomery County, Maryland with her husband, two sons, two miniature schnauzers, and a goldfish that seems to be vying for the world record of longest living fish. When she’s not writing or frantically parenting, she can be found on the Peloton, at the beach, or at a Bruce Springsteen concert, sometimes even dancing onstage.
A good book can really save your summer vacation!
Yes, I flirt with lifeguards for a picture every year—my characters have to get their chutzpah somewhere!
This year, they had heard about me and were excited to be in the picture! 🤣
Thanks boys!

Even when it’s windy, there’s nothing like an Avalon night—especially when I’m in conversation for the @avalonlibrary’s summer spotlight series!
True story, I finished writing my first novel in 2005. And every summer, I’d walk past the notices listing the authors who were speaking in Surfside Park that year and say, with a sigh, “Someday, maybe that’ll be me.” So I’m proof dreams can come true, kids!
Thank you so much to Kara and everyone at the Avalon library, my friends at @beachboundbookshop and @shopfayeandmadi—they’re new this year and awesome so go check them out asap!
And now… an exhale until I head up to Long Island on the 30th to FINALLY visit @northportbooks!
And as my 9yo pointed out tonight, my mom pays him $10 for every book of mine he sees being read on the beach so… get reading please 🤣

Prime Day is Tuesday, but FOUR of my six books INCLUDING Off the Record are on an early Prime Day deal so you can snag three of them for the price of two!
This is actually a big deal because new releases are never included in these promotions. So this is a great time to complete your collection of my books. They also make great gifts! 🩷

Down the shore this week? Pop into @beachboundbookshop in Avalon and snag signed copies of my books including Off the Record. And make sure you catch me TOMORROW night in Surfside Park with a signing to follow!

I am a HUGE nerd about the Fitzgeralds. Like I wore this shirt to see the Baz Luhrmann Gatsby on opening night (and may have jumped up screaming, “it’s a schnauzer! Myrtle’s non-Airedale terrier is a schnauzer”) with my then boyfriend, who still married me, so he knew what he was getting.
I also used to live across the street from their graves and go visit them, but… that’s a story for another day.
So when I heard @jennilwalsh’s new book was a historical fiction about the women who inspire Daisy and Jordan? I was like GIVE IT TO ME THIS SECOND!
And now, it’s out in the world and you can snag it too. Grab this one immediately. It’s amazing, old sport!

It has been a WEEK over here with the launch of Off the Record, end of school year events for my kids, swim team, edits due on one book and another to write (and I got back from @bethanybeachbooks at 11pm last night after driving the Bay Bridge in high winds—new fear unlocked let me tell you!), but before we can go to Avalon tomorrow and exhale, I had to get my vote in. 😎
