I'm a writer, Egyptologist, mom (2 kids and 2 spoiled Frenchies), friend, avid reader and dedicated coffee drinker.

The thing I'm most excited about at the moment is sharing NEFERURA with the world. The only daughter of Egypt's most renowned female pharaoh, Hatshepsut, we know little about Neferura's life. But in my story, she's a young woman who knows her duty and fears her vile half-brother. When Neferura overhears Thutmose’s plot to end her mother’s rule, she knows he must be stopped, no matter the cost. The discovery of a mysterious tattooed wisewoman and her shadowy network of spies offers an uneasy alliance. But the wisewoman wields more power than Neferura knew possible -- power with the potential to rival her own. Neferura must deci

Adrienne Gunn

Hi, I’m Adrienne! And I take pop culture way too seriously! I wrote a novel called FAN FAVORITE because I wanted to see what would happen if a regular gal who eats carbs and wears Birkenstocks went on a reality TV dating show and had to sit in a hot tub with a bunch of Instagram models (preorder now, in stores 6/24/25). Now I’m writing a romcom about a washed up pop star who goes on a Y2K reunion tour to win the heart of the boy bander of her dreams (Summer 2026). I write about pop culture on my Substack WHERE THE F*CK’S MY HAPPY ENDING?! and complain about how pop culture ruined my life on my podcast DON’T RUIN THIS FOR ME. On Wednesdays I watch Survivor. I believe RHOSLC is the best Housewives franchise. I’m obsessed with oil cleanser, Ve
