- Mary Laura Philpott thought she’d cracked the code.In today’s episode, we meet Mary Laura Philpott, author of the best-selling memoir-in-essays, “I Miss You When I Blink,” named one of NPR’s Favorite Books of 2019, a Best Book of the Year by Esquire and Real Simple, and #1 on the Indie Next List by booksellers nationwide.Mary Laura Philpott thought she’d cracked the code: Always be right, and you’ll always be happy. But once she’d completed her life’s to-do list (job, spouse, house, babies—check!), she found that instead of feeling content and successful, she felt anxious. Lost. Stuck in a daily grind of overflowing calendars, grueling small talk, and sprawling traffic. She’d done everything “right,” but she felt all wrong. What’s worse, she wondered: smiling and staying the course, or blowing it all up and running away? And are those the only options?In this collection of humorous and poignant and observations about home, work, and creative life, Mary Laura Philpott takes on the conflicting pressures of modern adulthood with wit and heart. She offers up her own stories to show that identity crises don’t happen just once or only at midlife; reassures us that small, recurring personal re-inventions are both normal and necessary; and affirms that multiple things can be true about any of us at once. Most of all, she learns that when you stop feeling satisfied with your life, you don’t have to burn it all down and set off on a transcontinental hike (unless you want to, of course). You can call upon your many selves to figure out who you are, who you’re not, and where you belong.Mary Laura starts the show with a reading from the first chapter of the book, where her young son reveals to her the perfect sentence – “I Miss You When I Blink” – so perfect, in fact, that she wrote a book about it.Engage with the show here: https://linktr.ee/CharlotteReadersPodcastDetailed show notes here: https://charlottereaderspodcast.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/charlottereaderspodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/charlottereaderspodcast/Twitter: https://twitter.com/charlottereaderCharlotte Readers Podcast is a proud member of the Authors on the Air Global Radio Network and the Queen City Podcast Network.1 hr 21 min

- Poet Gail Peck Brings Photographs of Dorothea Lange to Life in "An Instant Out of TimePoet Gail Peck Brings the Dust Bowl Photographs of Dorothea Lange to Life in "An Instant Out of Time" on Charlotte Readers PodcastIn today’s episode, we meet the 2020 winner of the Irene Blair Honeycutt Lifetime Achievement Award in Literary Arts and the author of “An Instant Out of Time,” “Within Two Rooms,” and other poetry collections.Joseph Bathanti, former North Carolina Poet Laureate says this about Gail’s new book:“I’ve admired Gail Peck’s poems for thirty years—their precision and sensibility, gorgeous imagery, and taut, chiseled language that echoes long after the final syllable. All these hallmarks are exponentially evident in Pecks’ extraordinary new volume, An Instant Out of Time. These new poems beautifully contemplate and amplify the Dust Bowl photographs of legendary photographer Dorothea Lange. While An Instant Out of Time is a primer on how to write breathtaking ekphrastic poems, it is also a celebration of two artists—Lange and Peck—in a seamless collaboration of their respective arts that is heartbreakingly unforgettable.”Gail’s first reading is “Tractored Out, Childress County, Texas” from her book “An Instant Out of Time.”Engage with the show here: https://linktr.ee/CharlotteReadersPodcastDetailed show notes here: https://charlottereaderspodcast.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/charlottereaderspodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/charlottereaderspodcast/Twitter: https://twitter.com/charlottereaderCharlotte Readers Podcast is a proud member of the Authors on the Air Global Radio Network and the Queen City Podcast Network.1 hr 19 min
