Join Ocean House owner and author Deborah Goodrich Royce for a conversation with author Jenny Jackson, who will discuss her New York Times bestselling novel Pineapple Street, new in paperback. About Pineapple Street: A New York Times bestseller | A Good Morning America Book Club Pick Darley, the eldest daughter in the well-connected old money Stockton family, followed her heart, trading her job and her inheritance for motherhood but giving up far too much in the process; Sasha, a middle-class New England girl, has married into the Brooklyn Heights family, and finds herself cast as the arriviste outsider; and Georgiana, the baby of the family, has fallen in love with someone she can't have, and must decide what kind of person she wants to be. Rife with the indulgent pleasures of life among New York's one-percenters, Pineapple Street is a smart, escapist novel that sparkles with wit. Full of recognizable, loveable—if fallible—characters, it's about the peculiar unknowability of someone else's family, the miles between the haves and have-nots, and the insanity of first love—all wrapped in a story that is a sheer delight. About Jenny Jackson: Jenny Jackson is a Vice President and Executive Editor at Alfred A. Knopf. A graduate of Williams College and the Columbia Publishing Course, she lives in Brooklyn Heights with her family. Pineapple Street is her first novel.

While many of us dream of being writers from a young age, the truth is, not all of us can do it early on in our lives and find that we have to defer that dream for another time. Jenny Jackson, whose debut novel Pineapple Street is quite possibly the most buzzed about book of the spring/summer isn't any different—she spent decades in publishing learning the craft by working with some of the world's most renowned authors before becoming an author herself. Meet Jenny Jackson Jenny is a Vice President and Executive Editor at Alfred A. Knopf and joined me today to talk about her debut novel, Pineapple Street. Key Topics The power of turning personal experiences into stories: Jenny Jackson discusses how writers can embrace life lessons and use them as inspiration for their stories.  The importance of perseverance in writing: Jenny shares advice from a bestselling author who emphasizes the need to keep going even when you get stuck. She encourages writers not to give up and to pick up their work again, even if it takes years to complete. Navigating personal boundaries in fiction writing: Jenny discusses the challenge of balancing personal experiences and boundaries when writing fiction. She shares insights into how writers can draw inspiration from their own lives while still respecting their own privacy and the privacy of others. The significance of archiving and valuing your own work: Jenny reflects on the importance of keeping track of your writing and having respect for your own work.  The writer's revenge: Jenny shares an anecdote of how writers can put people who have treated you poorly into your books without them ever knowing.

Comparison creeps up on us all and we've all experience it in some way but it rarely makes you feel better and it's often coming from a place of scarcity - believing that there's not enough success to go around. So as an antidote to comparison, we're talking about the power of celebrating others and how we can all use this to support others, celebrate successes, raise our own vibrations and also realise that celebrating someone else's success does not mean you've failed or that you're stopping you from your own successes.

Golden Voice narrator Marin Ireland excels at depicting the insular, privileged world of the Stockton family in this debut audiobook. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile's Michele Cobb discuss this tale of a Brooklyn Heights family that made their money in real estate, and how Marin's narration makes listeners feel for each of these characters. She gracefully takes listeners into an exclusive milieu of private schools, galas, and grand townhouses while beautifully conveying the frailties and emotional confusion that renders this family relatable. A compelling family saga. Read the full review of the audiobook on AudioFile's website. Published by Penguin Audio.

Happy Saturday, book clubbers! This month, we read ‘Vladimir' by Julia May Jonas. This novel is told from the perspective of a deliciously incisive narrator: a popular English professor whose husband, a charismatic teacher at the same small liberal arts college, is under investigation for his inappropriate relationships with his former students. The couple has long had a mutual understanding when it comes to their extramarital pursuits, but with these new allegations, life has become far less comfortable for them both. And when our narrator becomes increasingly infatuated with Vladimir, a celebrated, married young novelist who's just arrived on campus, their tinder-box world comes dangerously close to exploding.

A deliciously funny, sharply observed debut of family, love, and class, this zeitgeisty novel follows three women in one wealthy Brooklyn clan... Darley, the eldest daughter in the well-connected old money Stockton family, followed her heart, trading her job and her inheritance for motherhood but giving up far too much in the process; Sasha, a middle-class New England girl, has married into the Brooklyn Heights family, and finds herself cast as the arriviste outsider; and Georgiana, the baby of the family, has fallen in love with someone she can't have, and must decide what kind of person she wants to be. Rife with the indulgent pleasures of life among New York's one-percenters, Pineapple Street (Pamela Dorman Books, 2023) is a smart, escapist novel that sparkles with wit. Full of recognizable, loveable--if fallible--characters, it's about the peculiar unknowability of someone else's family, the miles between the haves and have-nots, and the insanity of first love--all wrapped in a story that is a sheer delight. Jenny Jackson is a Vice President and Executive Editor at Alfred A. Knopf. A graduate of Williams College and the Columbia Publishing Course, she lives in Brooklyn Heights with her family. Pineapple Street is her first novel.

In my new book The Life Council: 10 Friends Every Woman Needs, I write about how the "old friend" doesn't necessarily mean than you've known one another for decades. All that is required to hold that Life Council seat is to have a friend who has known you from one version of yourself into another. That actual timeline might vary.  But Shauna Niequist is one of my oldest friends however you measure it. We met in the late 90's working at summer camp, where (as I wrote about in my first book Share Your Stuff), I learned from Shauna a different way to walk in the world than I had previously been exposed to.  For twenty-five years, Shauna has been a friend, role model, mentor, and, yes, even a fellow obsessive as we discuss in this episode.  Shauna Niequist is the New York Times bestselling author of Cold Tangerines, Bittersweet, Bread & Wine, Savor, Present Over Perfect, and I Guess I Haven't Learned That Yet. She is married to Aaron, and they live in New York City with their two sons.  To listen to the full reading tangent Shauna and I take in this conversation, you'll have to join my Secret Stuff community.  LEARN MORE ABOUT SECRET STUFF You can learn more about Shauna here Follow Shauna on IG Follow Shauna on FB Subscribe to Shauna's Substack Reading & Eating   FULL SHOW NOTES HERE   MENTIONED: Episode 112: Who was there?

Jackson joins us to talk about publishing as an author rather than an editor, the intrigue of Brooklyn Heights, how to write humor and more. In Hello Beautiful, Ann Napolitano follows four sisters as they navigate their lives from the 80s to early 2000s through tragedy, love and what happens when our futures don't go as we've planned.

Meet Jenny: Award-Winning International Author, Successful Entrepreneur, Keynote Speaker, Entrepreneur Mindset Coach, And Student Of Life. From Jenny - I am a coach, entrepreneur, and author. I have been a passionate self-improvement student for over 15 years now. I published my book The Whywareness Effect in May 2022. I love to serve and share knowledge. Master at failing in multiple businesses until I found my calling, and along the way, I discover that it is not the number of times you try but the journey, the questions you ask, and the mindset you build while doing so. The Whywareness Effect Have you ever asked yourself why we are so in love with the word Why? And the number of times we use this word unconsciously throughout our lifecycle. Human beings are curious kitties, hungry to find a reason for each event that occurs in our lives, especially if those events are related to our development. If you want to know more, grab a copy; you will not want to stop reading. My Mission After struggling for so long doing things I thought would make me happy, I noticed something was missing and couldn't figure it out. After attending my first live seminar, something clicked inside, and things were the same and decided to learn and share this, becoming passionate about helping and serving others to find their way through, just as it did for me a few years back. I am sharing this to inspire you because you are not alone, and if you want to improve in any area of your life, you will need some guidance. Remember that we are just an email away!

I met today's guest Jenny Jackson who is the founder of Ave-Lumi and a mama on a mission to improve the sustainability of the fashion industry at a launch event in 2021. It was my first event of that kind and I knew nobody. If this had been a sorority party, Jenny quickly became my Big Sib. She took me under her wing, introduced me to people, and laughed at all of my jokes. As we spoke I was really inspired by Jenny's passion for sustainability and the deep integrity she brings to her work and her life.

Welcome to the Atlanta Foodcast: Awards Edition! I'm ME Comms Dir at Georgia Organics. We're bringing you this special episode to celebrate the Georgia Organics Annual Awards, an ongoing virtual celebration of some truly remarkable farmers, leading up to an online get-together with these farmers on Thursday, May 27. To register and learn more about this event and read more about these Annual Awards, visit georgiaorganics.org/awards. We also have two exciting cookbook events with Chef Asha Gomez and CheFarmer Matthew Raiford, in partnership with A Cappella Books, check out the Events on our Facebook page to learn more. We're thrilled to announce this year's winners: First, the Barbara Petit Pollinator Award, named in honor of Barbara Petit, a remarkable community food advocate who served as Georgia Organics' past president. This award acknowledges individuals with exceptional success in advancing Georgia Organics' mission of “Good Food for All” by spreading—pollinating—the movement throughout community life. The winners of this year's Barbara Petit Pollinator Award are Brennan and Gwendolyn Washington of Phoenix Gardens, our first guest on today's show! The Washingtons are successfully farmers and icons of leadership in Georgia and the Southeast; they offer an urban agriculture education-focused property, that has indeed risen from the ashes and thrives in Lawrenceville. They have impacted countless farmers across the Southeast, and we're excited to recognize their incredible work through this award. In 1997, the Land Steward Award was created by Georgia Organics to honor an individual or individuals who have contributed significantly to the organic agriculture movement in the state of Georgia. The Land Steward Award recognizes the farmer with significant commitments to the tenets of organic agriculture, including soil fertility, biodiversity, and more. The winners of this year's Land Steward Award are Chris and Jenny Jackson of Jenny Jack Farm. Chris and Jenny embody the meaning of this award through their dedication to sustainable scaling, a cared-for team, community connection, and, of course, fostering a better environment through soil health and organic growing practices. In this segment, Brennan and Gwendolyn talk with friend and fellow agriculture consultant-leader James Ford of Square O Consulting (squareoconsulting.com/). They discuss the history and mission of Phoenix Gardens and why mentorship and resource-sharing is so critical to the success of future generations of farmers in Georgia and beyond. They have had a profound impact on sustainable agriculture in our state and countless individuals have benefitted from their passion and wealth of knowledge. Next, we feature Land Steward Award winners Chris and Jenny Jackson of Jenny Jack Farm. Katherine Kennedy, Executive Director of Concrete Jungle and former apprentice at Jenny Jack, interviews the Jacksons about their 15-year farming career, lessons learned, and why they continue farming. You'll even hear cameos from their very special guests Amos and Tulsi as they explain how to grow a farm while raising children and finding balance in their life. Thank you for joining this special Annual Awards edition of Georgia Organics' Atlanta Foodcast.
