Author Interview with JM Burgoyne
JM Burgoyne chose to go to the University of East Anglia (aka UEA) over Oxford because she wanted to study creative writing at a place that was world-renowned for it. She did her BA in American Literature with Creative Writing (choosing this to avoid Gawain and the Green Knight and other very old books) from 2002-2006, then did a Masters in Studies in Fiction (reading and writing essays about experimental literature) from 2006-2007, also at UEA.
Since graduating, she's done various types of work - mostly in the writing or journalism fields. She usually has about 5 part-time jobs and prefers it that way. She likes almost all books but loves books that make you think, that make you feel, or change something in you.
In 2009 she was shortlisted for the Escalator Award for New Writers, and in May 2022 Writer was published by indie press Story Machine.

    Thanks for the review. And yes, there hasn't been a lot of memoir about luxury life. There are travelogue, which is always fun. That's different. But like you said, most that stood out in the market place are those of harrowing themes? Have you read, I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy?

      @LaceyLeeBorden 7 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yes, I have read that book. It was something else. Really great story telling the fact that she can remember so many details from so long ago to fully immerse you is amazing. She truly does remember lines well as an actor and it shows in her storytelling. I was so intrigued as to what her life was like to come up with such a title. Her perspective on relationships whether with friends, family, boys, and her career is so insightful. It was a great listen and opened my eyes up more to eating disorders and trauma other people go through. I couldn’t imagine going through all she went through but she wrote her book very well to speak her truth. It’s really upsetting how the media painted her as the bad guy so much especially pitting her against Ariana but I’m glad I could finally hear her side. Would like to recommend another similar one to you though, but I think I'd rest a bit from my ranting. Haha.
