In this episode, I talk to Margo Steines about her memoir Brutalities
We talk about:
- Not wanting to use suspense as a way to move readers through your work
- Having your first manuscript 'die on submission' (meaning an agent represents it, but no editors want to buy it)
- Gender dysphoria and the claustrophobia of the body
- Steines's friendship with Melissa Febos
- How parenting has influenced the stakes of publication for Steines
- Judgement of mothers who have done sex work
- Reading your own audiobook
- The importance of therapy
