Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I find the paperback/ebook versions of your books?
I’m so grateful that people want to enjoy my books in so many formats!
As part of my deal with Audible, my books are exclusive to them for a little while after release.
My books mean so much to me, so I'm taking the time to find the right publishing partner who loves these books as much as I do and is excited to get them into as many readers' hands as possible.

When is your next book coming?
My sixth book (excuse me, what?!?) is coming to audible summer 2026. It's called Lovers & Liars and all I can say for now is:
​
While quietly concealing the divorce of Hollywood’s golden couple, two rival publicists lose control of the only love story they can’t spin: their own.
​
For all the fun announcements (narrators anyone?) follow me on social media.
​
How can I best support you?
Reviewing, sharing on social media, and generally spreading the word about my books is the best way to support me!
​
What social media do you have?
I am only on Instagram and TikTok – @leeannesladeauthor. Any other accounts are NOT me. I love receiving messages from readers, so please feel free to reach out to me there. I step back from social media every now and then, especially when on a deadline, but I try my best to reply to everyone.
​
I would love to see your books as movies/TV shows. Are there any plans for this?
​
The Glitch is being made into a movie with Searchlight Pictures! You can follow me on social media or @theglitchfilm for all updates.
I am contractually obliged not to talk about any other adaptations yet 😉
​
I love writing. How do I get published?
This is one of my favourite questions because I was once in that position too – someone with passion and a dream but no real knowledge of the next steps! I can only speak for traditional publishing (self-publishing is equally valid and exciting, but since I have no experience with it, I don’t think I’m the best person to offer advice on that).
​
A simplified journey to traditional publishing:
-
Finish your book to the best of your ability. Then edit. Edit. Edit!
-
Write a query letter (250 words—think of the blurb on the back of a book but slightly more detailed).
-
Only literary agents can approach publishers. Research agents representing your genre and send your query to them, following their specific guidelines.
-
Wait...! (Seriously.) I spent five years writing and querying before I broke through. Some people sign quickly, but don’t be discouraged if you wait months to hear back. You only need one yes!
Remember: a legitimate agent / publisher will never ask you to part with money.
