Look who’s back! It’s Athena Dixon! Her latest book (as of 2023) is The Loneliness Files: A Memoir in Essays. It’s published by Tin House and edited by Hanif Abdurraqib.
It’s a quiet book, but don’t mistake that for meek. And we talk about the quiet authority of her book as well as:
- Athena being OK with the plateau
- Setting a concrete vision for your goals as a writer
- How Hanif helped her with throat clearing
- And how she edits clients without losing their voices
