Shorties (Deena Mohamed Interviewed, An Interview with Horse Lords, and more)

Shubeik Lubeik by Deena Mohamed

Deena Mohamed discussed her graphic novel Shubeik Lubeik with Goats and Soda.

When I was thinking about wishes sold at a kiosk, I constructed the idea of [low-quality] cheap wishes, called "third-class" wishes, and [high-quality] expensive wishes, called "first-class" wishes. So if there is a sort of commodification happening, there is immediately an issue of access. If you're poor, the [high-quality] wishes will be out of reach. But if you're rich, you will be able to afford mountains of wishes.

Taylor Harris discussed her memoir This Boy We Made: A Memoir of Motherhood, Genetics, and Facing the Unknown with Shondaland.

...publishing this first book has shown me that my kids … not only do they pay attention to what I’m doing, but they also appreciate it, which helps me then not see work and motherhood as two sort of combative forces. They’re not always in conflict. If I step back, I write about my kids, so of course they’re not always in conflict, but it really opened my eyes.
