Taffy Brodesser-Akner is a New York Times feature writer and author of the best-selling novel Fleishman Is In Trouble. On this episode, I revisit my 2017 conversation with her (one of my first Write About Now podcasts ever). We talk about why she broke into the writing business after years of doubting herself, how she found a formula for success in personal essays and, later, in celebrity profiles, and her secrets for being so damn good at the craft. The episode is packed with great stories and practical advice.
