Page Passion
Page Passion asked Roxane Gay:

In Bad Feminist, you discuss how there is a lack of diversity in television and film; do you feel is there more diversity in the literary world than in Hollywood?

Roxane Gay I sure don't. Diversity is a problem in nearly all artistic endeavors.

Got any helpful tips & tricks to get your butt in the chair and crank out a high word count? Recs for productive writing soundtracks, snack bribery, motivating self-peptalks, mindgames, etc?? :)

Kerri
Kerri asked Roxane Gay:

Hi Roxane, I was just wondering if there have ever been periods of your life (perhaps months, or even an entire year) where you just could not bring yourself to write? If so, how did you get through this?

Nick D.
Nick D. asked Roxane Gay:

As a novice in the area of understanding feminism I (myself) wonder, do you, as a female feel that the general perception of modern feminism is accurate or do you feel that the mass media and traditionalists have morphed it into something it was never intended to be? (I.E. "man hating")
