Everything is Fine

Talking Memoir with Megan Stielstra


Listen Later

Our guest today is Megan Stielstra. Megan is the author of three highly-acclaimed essay collections: Everyone Remain Calm, Once I Was Cool, and The Wrong Way to Save Your Life, which was the 2017 Nonfiction Book of the Year from the Chicago Review of Books. She’s also a beloved writing teacher, a member of the nonfiction faculty at Northwestern University, and teaches courses online with Catapult and StoryStudio. We spoke with Megan about creative practice, what holds us back from telling our stories, writing about those you love, and how the best thing we can do as creative people is listen to and lift each other up.
