Recording of Author Talk w/ Gemma Hartley
If you missed our conversation, here it is
Last week I had a wonderful time doing an author talk for Gemma Hartley’s new Substack
. The event was free to paid subscribers of Mad Woman—thanks to everyone who came.We talked about Touched Out, which Gemma called her favorite nonfiction read of the year! We also discussed recent trends in nonfiction, stepping away from the male-dominated hero’s journey, the limitations of “The Motherhood Discourse,” why it’s important to document the complexities of feminine subjectivity, the mythology of authorship, and how we field “what about your husband” questions.
