Hey, everyone! Earlier this week, I republished Part One of my Gone Girl rant post on my new website, and I wanted to re-share it on this one.
But this time, you get the privilege of being able to hear all through my new podcast, The Mystery & Media Mic, which is on my Youtube channel and Spotify, soon to be available on more platforms to come.
This episode breaks down Part 1 of the novel — exploring Nick Dunne’s questionable behavior, Amy’s too-perfect diary, and the art of building (and botching) reader trust. It’s part rant, part writing lesson, and all passion.
⚡️ Highlights:
- Why Nick Dunne is one of the most frustrating protagonists ever written
- How Amy’s diary creates the illusion of perfection
- What Gone Girl teaches writers about unreliable narrators and suspense
So grab your notebook — or your popcorn — and prepare for an unapologetically honest take on the book everyone still argues about
Enjoy this new version, and let me know what you think in the comments below!
