ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: What was the inspiration behind this book?
But it was certainly freeing.
In particular, growing up in the South, we just didnt talk about it.
Penguin Young Readers
But Ill tell you anyway.
Did you feel a special kind of pressure with this book being internet-famous?
That said, I feel really honored and qualified to talk about what being internet famous is really like.
Internet fame is different because many people think of it as attainable fame.
LikeDiet Dr. Fameor something, but the truth is its a much more tumultuous and self-forged path.
I think thats a unique position that internet famous people are in.
As far as who I think would get the most out of the book?
Anybody who feels like theyve been an outsider, but doesnt want to feel victimized by that title anymore.
