I start feeling claustrophobic if I’m even in the same room as someone wearing a turtleneck.

Genre-based accusations leveled at memoir & personal essays for self-absorption seem patently absurd. Every week, my graduate students’ manuscripts knock me out with their generosity, compassion, & sociopolitical engagement. So smart, so finely wrought. The self is just a lens.

@annanarrates @HachetteAudio @tom_mish You are like a rock star! Thank you so much x

Psychiatric history has tended to blame the individual; @kerrycohen, by contrast, focuses on the systemic forces that can lead us to enact—and repeat—unhealthy relationship dynamics.

RELEASE DAY! “Crazy For You” by @kerrycohen, published by @HachetteAudio and produced by the incredible @tom_mish!
Doing this book helped me realize that I LOVE narrating non-fiction. Giving voice to someone’s YEARS or LIFETIME of passionate research and learning is a real gift

"One thing I often tell my nonfiction students is that even though this is about you, and it’s your story, it’s not about you. It’s about the human condition and our fears and betrayals and desires." ~ Kim Barnes

Me too! When my son was 4 and wanted me to play with him, I told him I couldn’t wait until he was old enough to drink wine and talk about how capitalism has destroyed relationships

[oliver haug @cohaug]

I had the pleasure of talking to @kerrycohen about her new book and how capitalism has taught us to love in fucked up ways (my favorite thing to talk about!) for @BitchMedia ❤️‍🩹 https://t.co/obo7i9r6AH

[kerrycohen @kerrycohen]

@cohaug @BitchMedia Love love love the final version! Thanks, Oliver!

“I’m hoping we can have a force multiplier effect on books that would have sold modestly or wouldn’t have been a priority at a large publishing house,” said Molly Stern, the founder of Zando. “Now there will be air around them.” https://t.co/pjgo1Yug50
