Texts I'll Never Send:Drafts from a Woman at Capacity: What I Meant to Say Was No

Some texts are better left unsent.

Texts I'll Never Send: Drafts from a Woman at Capacity is a sharp, funny, and deeply relatable collection of the messages we all type... and then delete.

Inside are unsent replies to:

• men who reappear with "hey"
• coworkers who say "just circling back"
• friends who suggest 8:30 p.m. dinners
• family group chats that never end
• and the tiny daily annoyances that somehow require emotional restraint

Equal parts humor and quiet honesty, this book captures the exact moment between what you want to say and what you actually send.

Perfect for fans of witty, modern humor and highly giftable, browsable books, this is a collection to dip into, laugh at, and recognize yourself in.

For anyone who has ever typed a message, stared at it, and chosen peace instead.

• Highly browsable, one-joke-per-page format
• Perfect gift for friends, sisters, and coworkers
• Relatable humor about modern life, work, dating, and boundaries
• Ideal for fans of contemporary women's humor and social media-style wit

Iris Hartley writes about modern life, boundaries, and the quiet art of not replying immediately. Her work focuses on the small, unspoken moments that sit between what we think and what we actually say.Texts I'll Never Send is her first book.
