Dine & Dish With Dawn

  Dine & Dish with Sarah Hepola “It’s not your job to save another person…but you can remind them of their value.” (Sarah Hepola) Y’all, I’ve got a girl crush…as the band Little Big Town sings…and, it’s on our guest today, Sarah Hepola. The New York Times Bestselling author of BLACKOUT and former Salon Editor has had essays appear in the New York Times Magazine, Elle, The New Republic, Glamour, The Guardian, Slate and The Morning News. She is also from my hometown of Dallas, which is where I dined and dished with her at the Wild Detectives Bookstore - a place that is even cooler than it sounds. Sarah’s book was recommended to me by my mother, an accounting professor as she thought I would love to read a book by a fellow Dallas girl-turned-writer. I, of course, resisted - as we sometimes do as daughters - until she kept bringing it up, and I had no choice but to buy it. Within the first 10 pages, I had decided I loved the book, respected the writer’s honesty…and knew that I just HAD to have her on my show.
