✨ Episode 28: Everyone in the Group Chat Dies
We are DEEP in our 2026 journal era. Rachel shows off her beautifully curated sticker paradise, while Kasie’s vibe is… chaos, but intentional. ✨📓 We compare layouts, planning styles, and invite you to snoop—head to our YouTube to peek inside both Kasie and Rachel’s journals (no judgment, only vibes).
📖 ARC Talk! Rachel reviews Everyone in the Group Chat Dies by L.M. Chilton (@lmchiltonauthor) and gives it 4 stars—a sharp, clever thriller with bite. Kasie gives the cover art 5 stars because it’s punchy, vibrant, and iconic. Plot twist: this is the first time Rachel has ever complimented cover design. Mark the calendar. 📅
✍️ Writerly Things Incoming Kasie reviews The Getaway Car: A Practical Memoir About Writing and Life by Ann Patchett (@Ann_Patchett), recommended by David Sedaris. ☕☕☕☕ 4 coffee cups for thoughtful, compact wisdom that hits hard—especially if you’ve ever whispered, “I think I might want to be a writer?”
Rachel, our resident language arts teacher, drops real classroom-tested tips for aspiring writers on how to get organized, get started, and keep going. We absolutely gush over her expertise because it is gold. ⭐
We also dive into the evolution of writing—books, fictional podcasts, screen, stage—and ask the big questions: Who are you writing for? Why are you writing? And the only rule that matters: do what you love and follow your passion.
🥐☕Huge thank you to @chez.david.french.restaurant for letting us record our bookish podcast in your beautiful space—and for keeping our coffee cups very full. The delicious French food and pastries were absolute perfection. Perfect vibes, perfect pours. We’re so grateful! ☕✨

🎙️ Booked for the Holidays: Stories That Became Christmas Classics
Episode 23 – Holiday Special
Snuggle up with your coziest blanket and your favorite holiday brew—because this festive episode is overflowing with Christmas nostalgia, bookish chaos, and all the warm fuzzy vibes. 🎄📚☕
This week on The Spilled Ink and Coffee Show, we’re celebrating two beloved holiday books and the movies they inspired, written by the brilliant:
✨ Jean Shepherd — author of In God We Trust, All Others Pay Cash, the nostalgic storytelling that became the legendary film A Christmas Story. ✨ Barbara Robinson — author of The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, the uproariously heartfelt tale of the Herdmans crashing a church play and unexpectedly delivering a Christmas miracle.
But that’s not all… We’re also unwrapping our own holiday traditions, the cozy rituals we return to every year, and the little moments that make the season sparkle.
Plus—get ready for giggles—because we dig into a round of Holiday Bookish ‘Would You Rather?’ that had us debating everything from chaotic Christmas characters to snowy reading spots. 📚🎁✨
Warm, witty, and wonderfully festive—this episode is a Christmas classic in the making.

🎬November Book Club Special: Book-to-Movie Showdown at Gigglewaters!
📖 Full Episode Description:
This month, The Spilled Ink & Coffee Society stepped out of the virtual world and into the cozy cinematic glow of Gigglewaters in Safety Harbor, Florida for a special in-person November book club event! With popcorn popping, espresso flowing, and the vibe set to “bookish mischief,” we hosted our very first Book-to-Movie Showdown — and it did not disappoint.
In this episode, we dive deep into two wildly different but equally iconic stories:
🎭 The Phantom of the Opera
From the novel’s gothic tunnels and haunting romance to the sweeping drama of its film adaptations, we explore how this timeless tale transforms from page to screen. Does the book’s eerie intensity hold up? Do the movies elevate or dilute Gaston Leroux’s masterpiece? And yes… we talk about that chandelier scene.
🎮 Ready Player One
Nostalgia? Check. Pop-culture overload? Check. A VR dystopia that weirdly feels like our future? Double check. We dig into what the book gets right, where the movie levels up, and which version wins the Society’s showdown debate. Expect spicy opinions, surprising agreements, and more 80s references than anyone asked for.
Recorded live on location, this episode is filled with laughter, great conversation, and that warm community energy that makes the Spilled Ink & Coffee Society what it is. Whether you read the books, watched the films, or just love a good literary throwdown, this is one episode you won’t want to miss.
Grab your beverage of choice, settle in, and enjoy the cinematic chaos.
