Amelia Morris, WILDCAT: A Novel

Zibby is joined by Amelia Morris to talk about her first novel, Wildcat, which was inspired in part by a fight with her own mother and the desire to call out unrealistic expectations placed on mothers. The two discuss how Amelia got her start with her Bon Appétempt blog and food memoir despite always wanting to write fiction, as well as how her husband helped her find time to craft this project during the pandemic. Amelia also shares what she is working on next and how Normal People and Fleabag play a role in it.
