Alissa Nutting talks about adapting her novel "Made For Love" into a TV series and reflects on writing her singular first novel "Tampa" almost nine years after its release. She tells me about creating a character that engages with being loathsome and going over the top to make your point. We discuss eating breakfast at McDonald's and eulogize the Mexican Pizza at Taco Bell. Toward the end, I endorse a new drugstore lip product, share the perfect spring coffee order, gush about the documentary "Naughty Books" and more.
Watch Alissa's new TV series "Made For Love" on HBO Max. Buy her books "Made For Love," "Tampa" & "Unclean Jobs For Women and Girls: Stories" on Bookshop.
