This is so wonderful. And it's making me buy the book. And that's why this whole series is so wonderful. It's not only fortifying for anyone contemplating writing a memoir (guilty!), but it also introduces wonderful authors and books you'd never hear of otherwise.

Sari, in ALL your enterprises you are doing great services, filling aching gaps we didn't know were there—about aging, writing, sobriety—living.

Just chiming in to thank Sari for the interview and to thank Tom (and Mike) for so many years of Book Fight. They’re winding it down now after 14 years and leaving a great body of reviews.

To Tom: It must have been awful writing about things you didn't care about. You get the prize for persistence.

To Sari (the most prolific person I've ever known): I love reading these author questionnaire responses. Same questions. Unique responses, unique as a fingerprint, including Tom's. Are we on for May 23? Am I Questionnaire #106?
