Ruta Sepetys, YOU: The Story: A Writer's Guide to Craft Through Memory

Season 18 Episode 38 Published 3 years, 1 month ago
Description

Guest host Julie Chavez interviews #1 New York Times bestselling author Ruta Sepetys about her nonfiction debut, a powerful how-to book for aspiring writers, You: The Story: A Writer’s Guide to Craft Through Memory. Ruta reveals what inspired her to write this guide (and why she felt so vulnerable recording her own audiobook). The two then talk about stories: how everybody has them and what it takes to put them on paper–revisiting memories, reframing perspectives and regret, finding our authentic voice, writing to comprehend (not condemn), being open to criticism, and lots of revisions.
