Beloved author Anne Lamott has a new book out in March 2026 co-written with her husband, Neal Allen. Based on rules of writing Neal has collected over the years, it’s also a sideways glimpse into how Anne and Neal collaborate on writing, editing, and living together. Together, they bring humor, warmth, and wisdom to audiences seeking relief from political fear, help with roadblocks to creativity, and methods for taming life’s everyday gremlins.

Join Lamott and writer–speaker Allen for a warm, funny, and insight-packed evening celebrating their forthcoming collaborative book, Good Writing: 36 Ways to Improve Your Sentences (publishing March 17, 2026). Appearing together onstage, the married co-authors will dive into the heart of what they call “the 36 ways to turn a worthy sentence into a memorable one,” sharing the origins of their ideas, the joys and perils of co-writing as a couple, and the art of crafting language that truly lands with readers.
