Novel Writing for Journalists with the NYT's Elizabeth Harris
Manage episode 478915057 series 2770059
When a former NYT journo who now writes novels (that would be me, hi) gets together with a current NYT journo now writing novels, they—we!—cannot stop talking about the challenges, advantages, schedules, pros and cons of book leave and what it is about fiction that lights some journalists up, and turns some off. It’s the good, the bad and the overcome-able, and a class in how people who know they can get the work done also flail, and yet still get the work done.
Mentioned on the pod:
Fates and Furies, Lauren Groff
Twice in a Full Moon, Christina Lauren
#AmReading
Liz: Naked in the Promised Land, Lillian Faderman
KJ: Didion and Babitz, Lili Anolik
