Meredith Maran is an accomplished journalist and author whose daring, personal and controversial memoir is out TODAY! She will be the visiting writer in the Book Writing World in October, meaning an interview with her will be available in video here in a few weeks as well as on audio through our new podcast (subscribe on the home page to the right and down). It also means that Meredith will come chat with members of the BWW in October, answering questions about writing, memoir, non-fiction, even fiction as well as publishing and the writing life.
Here is some coverage of her new book, My Lie:

I hear from Meredith that there is even hate mail for her at Salon. The glamor and the glory of being a published writer: can’t you just taste it?
