Naked on the Page

The premise of sharing intimate details of our lives can sound daunting, but in practice — sharing one’s life on the page with honesty, thoughtful consideration, and critique — can it actually allow us to get closer to ourselves? Join us for a conversation between Melissa Febos, author of The Dry Season, and Catherine Lacey, author of The Möbius Book, as they discuss intimacy, vulnerability, the writing process, and where these topics meet. Moderated by Greg Mania (Born to Be Public).
