Host Madeline Wahl speaks with Darcey Steinke, the author of the memoirs Flash Count Diary, This is the Door, Easter Everywhere and five novels: Sister Golden Hair, Milk, Jesus Saves, Suicide Blonde, and Up Through the Water. Her books have been translated into ten languages, and her nonfiction has appeared widely. Her web story “Blindspot” was a part of the 2000 Whitney Biennial. She has been both a Henry Hoyns and a Stegner Fellow, and a Writer-in-Residence at the University of Mississippi. She has taught at the Columbia University School of the Arts, New York University, Princeton, and the American University of Paris. She lives with her husband in Brooklyn. Together, they talk about writing nonfiction, life as a person who stutters, and how Steinke continues to express herself in creative ways.  Links: Darcey Steinke's website The New York Times: My Stutter Made Me a Better Writer Pre-Order Steinke's newest book This is the Door Music: guitar songs provided by mobygratis.
