Look who’s back! It’s Erica J. Berry (@ericajberry) and she’s here to talk about Wolfish: Wolf, Self, and the Stories We Tell About Fear (Flatiron Books).
Erica came on the show back in 2017 (I shudder to think of the audio) and it’s worth revisiting, and it’s nice that nearly six years later her work has evolved so greatly that we now get to talk about her magnificent book.
In this episode, we talk about:
- The panic of having to deliver on your proposal
- How her relationship to writing has changed in five years
- The wolf as vector for her story
- And finding a through line with the wolf OR-7
Lots to chew on here and I think you’ll dig it.
