This week, host June Thomas talks to author and poet Judith Barrington about her knack for memoir writing and about a retreat called Flight of the Mind that she ran with her partner for 17 years. In the interview, they discuss what makes good memoir writing, what Flight of the Mind meant to women writers, and how to get the most out of writing retreats and workshops.

After the interview, June and co-host Ronald Young Jr. talk about why memoir as an art form is so important.

In the exclusive Slate Plus segment, Judith talks about how she learned to promote her work on Instagram.
