What happens when a woman discovers that the man she's been interacting with online isn't who he says he is?
On this episode of Bookbound, we sit down with Anna Akbari, author of the “jaw-dropping” (according to the New York Times) memoir There is No Ethan: How Three Women Caught America’s Biggest Catfish.
Anna shares her journey of transforming a harrowing experience with an internet predator into her engaging and impactful memoir. She reveals the behind-the-scenes struggles with the publishing industry, the significance of storytelling, and how her ordeal resonated with many women facing toxic relationships and online dating exhaustion. We also explore the broader topics of the current trend of audiobooks and the strategy behind great book titles and covers.
Join us for an episode filled with advice for aspiring authors and a fascinating look at the journey from real-life experience to published memoir.
