In this week\u2019s episode, we discuss a new(ish) collection of Joan Didion\u2019s previously uncollected essays, including a few about writing, two of which we picked to focus on. Also: Elena\u2019s cat mishap, large-text editions, why we were all born in the wrong era for making money off of writing, a Didion-themed lightning round, and more!
