My Luck to Learn about Her Joy!


Amy Tan is one of my favorite authors.  My youngest daughter fell in love with Sagwa about the same time I fell in love with Saving Fish From Drowning.  Amy loves to talk about writing and when she does there is a personal connection with her audience.  She is real and full of humor.  Listen to her talk about her muse.




In another interview Amy talks about writing what you know.  It is important to any writer to come at your audience armed not with verbosity and prose, but instead with truth and honesty.  It is personal experience that make a writer's work interesting.


I love Amy Tan's sense of self and, especially, her sense of humor.
