Meg Geisewite's book, Intoxicating Lies, is one of our favorite examples of a "teaching memoir": a book that blends memoir with prescriptive nonfiction. It's a tricky balance to achieve, as we discuss in today's podcast - but Meg pulls it off beautifully! Moreover, when Meg started writing, she had little experience as a professional writer - she just had a story to tell. Pretty soon, however, she found that her story was an inspiration to others and it has led to a social media community, speaking at conferences, coaching others, and starting a new writing community for other women in similar circumstances. For Meg, a book was just the beginning!
