Marita Golden is an award-winning author of over twenty works of fiction and nonfiction. Her books include the novels, The Wide Circumference of Love, and After and the memoirs Migrations of the Heart, Saving Our Sons, and Don’t Play in the Sun: One Woman’s Journey Through the Color Complex.

Over the years, Marita’s life and work as an author and literary activist has served as both personal and professional inspiration to me and countless other writers.
During our interview, we discuss:

- Why writers shouldn’t feel guilty about the need to make money from their writing.
