Sara Zarr’s podcast This Creative Life was basically my MFA, before I went and got an MFA. Sara’s books are master classes in and of themselves and if you listen to just one podcast you’ll know how much she loves to think about writing. I can’t wait to talk with her about creating that elusive subtext in our work.

Sara Zarr is the author of eight novels, most recently Goodbye from Nowhere. She’s a National Book Award finalist and two-time Utah Book Award winner, and the host and producer of the podcast This Creative Life.
