Toxic Lit Podcast: Interview with Sudana Krasniqi

You probably already know all about Sudana Krasniqi through her hilarious notes and stories on my so-called life, but you haven’t heard the “Cardi B of Substack” (her words and I’m jealous I didn’t think of it because it’s great) like this.

In this interview, we talked about a wide range of things:

• How she uses her real life experience to inspire her stories

• How song lyrics from artists like Fiona Apple and Trent Reznor were some of her early literary influences

• Contemporary lit that isn’t Substack and how it’s hard to read it sometimes

• Why only hater nerds don’t like New York City, the greatest city on earth

• Why Bukowski should be given a posthumous Nobel Prize and that people who call him misogynist should apologize before being exiled forever (okay, this is more my opinion, but she probably agrees)

And a whole lot more!

Listen and love.

Thank you!
