This was an extraordinary deep dive—both into the craft of narrative nonfiction and the inner life of a working writer navigating uncertainty, complexity, and curiosity. Rebecca’s honesty about learning to “write scenes,” balancing empathy with skepticism, and showing up even when it’s uncomfortable felt deeply relatable and inspiring.
Thank you, Anton. I agree, I so appreciate her honesty about how this work can be uncomfortable not come naturally. But I did find it inspiring that she learned to challenge herself along the way.
