Walk-Ins Welcome Podcast 150 - Kat Rosenfield

Original Air Date - 10/14/21
Kat Rosenfield, author of the new book No One Will Miss Her, shares her writing process with Bridget, and talks about her transition from YA to Adult Thriller novels. They talk about why the YA community is so susceptible to moral panic, when grown women turn back into teenage girls online, what the culture wars are doing to the art world and art itself, how you can feel it when an artist feels pressured to conform to a certain set of ideals, and why she finds the idea of sensitivity readers fundamentally ridiculous. The discuss the odd paradox that authors are being told that they're required to disclose trauma in order to be allowed to write about it and how invasive and damaging that can be, why sensitivity readers tend to traffic in stereotypes, and how the end game for all of it is to narrow the playing field and get people to self-exclude.
