Episode 30: Author Dinty W. Moore talks process, persistence, and prose

Behind the Prose

I recorded this episode in September when Dinty W. Moore’s latest book, Dear Mister Essay Writer Guy: Advice and Confessions on Writing, Love, and Cannibals hit the stands. We talk about that book and his classic memoir Between Panic and Desire. In this interview you’ll learn how to: Craft universality in memoir,Create “character” in nonfiction, andTrust your ear in the drafting process. Plus, I’ve got the Writers' Check-In and a great giveaway for THE INTROVERT ENTREPRENEUR: Amplify Your Strengths and Create Success on Your Own Terms (Perigee/ Penguin Random House; November 3, 2015), a book Publisher’s Weekly said it's “{A} winning business manual…a thoughtful, kind and helpful guide for all those who are looking to strike out on their own, but are concerned that their need for alone time may get in the way.” Listen, learn, and write. **Transcripts have been suspended until Thanksgiving Break.**
