Head On Fire

74: Episode 143: Inciting Meg Elison's Riot


Listen Later

 

Episode 143 is an interview with author Meg Elison. Meg is celebrating two new books - Find Layla and Big Girl. We have a discussion about creativity during quarantine, whether the apocalypse looks like she imagined it as an author of speculative post-apocalyptic fiction, and the body positive / fat acceptance movements. A good chunk of time was spent discussing writing authentically and inclusively, and how to walk the line as a creator of realistic portrayals of diversity without falling into the pitfalls of stereotypes or problematic tropes.
