Bookshop Interview with Author Amy Weinland Daughters, Episode #254

Nov 12, 2025

Author Amy Weinland Daughters discusses her book, You Cannot Mess This Up: A True Story That Never Happened. Amy kicked around the idea for a funny little time travel story for very long time before actually writing it, finishing it, and sending it out into the world. You Cannot Mess This Up is the story of Amy going back in time to her childhood home in 1978 to spend 36 hours with her family over the Thanksgiving holiday. She meets her ten-year-old self and rediscovers what a wonderful, funny, vibrant person she used to be. By the end of writing this story, Amy wanted to be that 10-year-old self again. Amy describes this book as a “memoir wrapped in a tortilla of fictional time travel.” We also chat about her her follow-up book, Dear Dana, which chronicles that time when she sent handwritten letters to her nearly 600 Facebook friends.
