Arts & Culture

Elyse Myers is known to her 12 million followers as “The Internet’s Best Friend,” sharing relatable stories and comedic sketches while serving as an advocate for topics such as neurodiversity, impostor syndrome, body image, and more. Whether she’s making people laugh with tales of disastrous dates or giving a voice to that awkward internal monologue many of us have, she has three simple goals behind everything she makes: To make people feel known, loved, and like they belong.

In That’s a Great Question, I’d Love to Tell You, Elyse delivers a debut collection of deeply personal stories and hand-drawn illustrations, offering even more intimate reflections beyond what fans have seen on her social media, including:

  • Spending 7 Minutes in Heaven and accidentally friend-zoning her crush
  • How Lucy, the Magic 8 Ball keychain, changed her life by accident
  • The “meat cute” when she met her smoke show of a husband at a butcher’s counter in Australia

Plus, stories of bad dates and almost-dates; the irresistible but hopeless urge to reinvent yourself; panic attacks and the escape routes they inspire; favorite pens and the systems for using them—all while navigating the art of loving and being loved, ideally at the same time.
