Writing About Your Exes (And Living to Tell the Story) with E.M. Gallagher

Writing About Your Exes (And Living to Tell the Story) with E.M. Gallagher

Today's episode is for anyone who's ever fallen in love, ignored a red flag, or romanticized someone who absolutely did not deserve it.

I'm joined by writer and author E.M. Gallagher, whose memoir Ugh. Anyway… dives into love, heartbreak, ambition, and the beautifully questionable decisions that come with dating in New York City.

We published this book through my imprint, Pink Ink Press, and it's already building a cult following.

In this conversation, we get into:

  • What it really takes to write about your exes (and actually publish it)
  • The line between love and delusion
  • Writing through heartbreak vs. writing after it
  • Navigating real people on the page
  • How New York shapes the way we love (for better or worse)
  • What happens when you finally tell the truth about your life

This one is honest, funny, a little chaotic...and very real.

If you've ever thought, "I could write a book about my exes"… this might be your sign.

Get the Book

Ugh. Anyway… by E.M. Gallagher — available now on Amazon + Barnes & Noble
