Look: If I'm talking with a live kidney donor who is also a writer, I'm going to ask about Bad Art Friend. It's who I am.

Love every word of this and adding the book to my list immediately! I cackled at the Bad Art Friend question. You rock.

Great interview. I'm looking forward to reading Never Simple - like you, I am always interested in the mother-daughter dynamic. I can imagine how naked it feels to write honestly about something so complex and personal. I was also struck by how much Liz Scheier was able to do in three hours a week. That is something I needed to read. Thanks for the entire interview. Nicole Chung's All You Can Ever Know is also one my favorite memoirs.
