Sara Goodman Confino is the bestselling author of seven novels: Off the Record, Don’t Forget to Write, Good Grief, Behind Every Good Man, She’s Up to No Good, For the Love of Friends, and the upcoming It's a Shore Thing. 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, and two miniature schnauzers. 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.
Listen, I’m not saying that I can predict the future, but I DO have exquisite taste in men!
Okay to be fair, I had a framed picture of @therealnoahwyle in my locker in high school, but still. I name dropped him in It’s a Shore Thing BEFORE @people picked him 🥰

A reminder as we go into this election season, from me and Bruce. Mostly Bruce, because he’s the one who said it. But I also got distracted and forgot to post the pics of me and him on the anniversary of the concert where they were taken last week. And because it’s important.

Overstimulated at a kids’s play zone for a birthday party (and probably contracting six viruses), but basking in the fact that It’s a Shore Thing got its first two reviews and they were glowing 🥰

Oh, I’m sorry. Did you think the It’s a Shore Thing phone case was extra? *sips tea** Meet the latest addition.
*it’s actually coffee. Which I drink iced, out of a tumbler, year round because in my house, any open container is likely to end with a Nerf dart in it.
Also no, you can’t buy merch (I contractually can’t sell it), but I’ll have some fun giveaways soon!

How I spent my day. The kids’ school has a pumpkin painting contest thing (not really a contest) every fall and well… I like to win.
I free handed that Yellow Submarine, so I need everyone to admire my one artistic skill beyond writing 🤣🤣🤣
Also next fall’s book is Beatles themed so… this counts as a book post too 😝
