What is So Very?

So Very is a newsletter that will come into your email box and surprise you. Sometimes it will be about my obsession with Sarah Jessica Parker’s sweatshirts. Sometimes it will be about dealing with anxiety as a writer. Sometimes it will be about writing.

I’m Hayley Krischer and I’m the author of the YA novels SOMETHING HAPPENED TO ALI GREENLEAF and THE FALLING GIRLS. My new adult novel, WHERE ARE YOU, ECHO BLUE? will be published by Dutton in 2024.

I’ve been writing So Very since 2015 but moved it to Substack in 2021 because everyone else is doing it and I felt left out. You can also find me on Instagram and even on Tik Tok.

Thanks for finding your way here.

Hayley
