Episode 34: What Remains by Carole Radziwill

Here's what I learned from What Remains by Carole Radziwill:

-The best prologue I’ve read so far because of her journalistic style of writing. 

-Structure is so important. It should be seamless, unnoticeable; surprising but not confusing. Never linear. 

-Rather than attempt to describe visceral moments from my life where I’ve “cried so hard,” I can skip them altogether.  

-Facts are more shocking than trying to describe the shocking thing.

-A strong ending: circled back to the prologue and then closed with a flashback.
