Zibby is joined by award-winning author Judy Goldman to talk about her latest memoir, Child, which she didn't feel ready to write until her eighties. Judy shares how she processed and portrayed the sensitive nature of her personal history growing up in the segregated Jim Crow South, as well as why she felt called to write this memoir in the first place. The two discuss the benefits of launching a writing career later in life, what Judy hopes readers don't take away from this story, and the significance of her upcoming project.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: https://amzn.to/3uK40d7Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3aBB1BxSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.** Follow @totallybookedwithzibby on Instagram for listening guides and more. **(Music by Morning Moon Music.
