Show Notes
Acamea Deadwiler is an essayist and memoirist and the author of Daddy's Little Stranger.
This is a really rich conversation about how her book was once a collection of essays, but she had to rewrite it as a more cohesive memoir, finding voice, breaking down a piece of writing like game tape, and what playing basketball and getting cut taught her about a career in writing.
