Molly Wizenberg is the author of three memoirs, including her most recent book titled "The Fixed Stars." She also created the James Beard-award-winning food blog Orangette and now writes a Substack newsletter called I've Got a Feeling. And on top of all that, she's a wife, a mother of two, and the host of the podcast Spilled Milk.

Molly will be leading her second writing workshop at the Zapata Ranch this summer– Food as a Doorway to Memory – thus, Ed and Molly talked a lot about her approach to teaching. She shares some techniques that help writers find their authentic voices, and she talks a lot about other authors and teachers who have positively influenced her journey as a writer. Molly has been riding horses since childhood, so this episode covers both her love of horses and her daughter's budding obsession with riding.
