Alison Bechdel sort-of interview

[redbird]

In the Guardian, Bechdel talks about her family's reaction to her memoir Fun Home, and effects of being noticed beyond the smaller group that follows Dykes to Watch Out For.

Thanks for the pointer.

Thanks for the pointer. I especially like the bit about clearing out the hard drive of her mind.

That was a wonderful interview to read!

Although: she thought it would help? Really? I'll only publish my memoirs before I die if I finally and completely give up on any kind of relationship with my family. (Besides, mine would be boring; there's lots of stuff going on with my family I don't know any details of, I just know it exists.)

My memoirs are all over the 'net and my family already knows what I think of them.

Thanks for that!
