It was interesting to me that youtube presented this to watch, let alone the lady agreeing that it was a wonder that her book was even written, let alone published. There was mention of the Screwtape Letters, also another woman’s book which remained feminist, i.e. North American woman. One commenter listed the topics as the long podcast went on.
Cunning plan is to run this now, at 1311 our time, with a Saint episode going up about 1430, probably two jazz tracks around 1600, then the last politics around 1700.
This was the layout:
She makes mention a few times about it being fictionalised reality … things she or friends went through, presumably also she knew of others going through. And yes, that was precisely what Masquerade, my long book, was about. It started with straight diary notes but because it was in the first person, obviously that skewed the tale … so I went third person but the danger was a Mary-Sue or the male equivalent.
Thus I was understanding her drift there. I plan to listen as audio this evening.
