Stephanie Gorton, author of Citizen Reporters: S.S. McClure, Ida Tarbell, and the Magazine that Rewrote America, talks about the sacrifice of writing a book, reading fiction and nonfiction, and what it was like midwifing other people's books into the world before writing her own.

This episode is sponsored by Scrivener, made by writers for writers, and Casualty of Words, a near-daily writing podcast for people in a hurry.
