It ain't fall 'til September 23rd y'all. Hold onto sweet, scary summer for one more day by joining your resident basement girls Steph Grossman and Bianca Pérez in their discussion about the summer camp horror film that started it all: the original FRIDAY THE 13TH. Topics include a brief history of summer camp, the "whodunnit" aspect of the film, Steph's despise of Neddy, cozy horror, feminist subtext, final girls, motherhood, and how the famous "ch ch ch ah ah ah" sound is actually a remix of "kill kill kill ma ma ma" (really! That's what it says!). We also answer questions and comments from a few listeners who also happen to be authors: William Jensen, Brendan Deneen, and Amy Gentry.

Amy Gentry is the author of the brand new suspense novel, BAD HABITS, a page turner with an eerie, cult-like academic setting—and a deadly outcome. This episode is a deep dive into the classist, racist, and often exploitative structures within universities. We talk sex as power, desire as weakness, the roles privilege plays in intellectual pursuits, and the erotics of pedagogy.  It’s a delicious conversation dripping with intellect and innuendo. Amy--who holds a PhD in English from the University of Chicago--talks about her experiences in academic circles and how she sees class privilege, racism, and cult-like dynamics at play in them. Carly shares her experiences in graduate school of pronouncing words wrong while rubbing up against people who came to intellectual pursuits as a "birthright." Amy talks about the blurred lines in student-professor relationships at university and looks at the types of exchanges of power that can happen in hierarchal systems. We talk about the vulnerability of wanting something so hard that it makes you susceptible to exploitation or abuse. Amy divulges on the "sexy professor" trope and why it's such a common fantasy, and how she wrote the sex scenes in BAD HABITS. Amy talks about sex scenes in novels as "choreography," which Amy credits to Layne Fargo, the author of a bunch of super sexy thrillers, such as They Never Learn. Amy talks about the fun of writing characters who do unspeakable things, and the work of understanding their motives. Amy recommends Lisa Ruddick's academic writing on academia (how meta!). Her piece, When Nothing is Cool, is her most famous. She also references Kate Mann's Down Girl: The Logic of Misogyny when we discuss the image of women with desire.

DARK MYSTERIES Tuesday and Friday at 2am CET - Wednesday and Friday at 1pm CET. This program is hosted by Madeleine d'Este. This week, Madeleine talks about the book "Last Woman Standing" by Amy Gentry.

First Draft Episode #194: Abdi Nazemian Abdi Nazemian, TV writer, producer of films like Call Me By Your Name, and author of Like a Love Story, The Authentics, and The Walk-In Closet, talks about discovering gay icons in the time before the internet, putting all your obsessions in your work, crying in coffee shops, and writing about history from an emotional standpoint, so we can repeat the best of it. Links and Topics Mentioned In This Episode Abdi’s daughter has a PJ Harvey poster in her bedroom, which makes her the coolest seven-year-old on the block Archie comics were what turned Abdi into a voracious reader Andy Hardy, Christmas, and movies from the 30s and 40s were some of the Americana that made Abdi drawn to the U.S. culturally Tahereh Mafi, author of the Shatter Me series, A Very Large Expanse of Sea, Furthermore, and Whichwood (listen to Tahereh’s episode of First Draft here) Old TV shows like I Love Lucy were deliberately sexless Judy Garland and Joan Crawford were two women who had public personas, but were hiding their interior lives. Abdi was drawn to that as a young, closeted gay man The book How to Be Gay by David M. Halperin dives into how certain films and people become gay icons Tori Amos’s Boys for Pele (33 ⅓) by Amy Gentry, a book that dives into the making of Tori Amos’s iconic album One of Abdi’s first jobs was as an assistant in the company founded by director Alan J. Pakula, director of Sophie’s Choice and All the President’s Men, among other films Abdi spent so much time reading scripts in his first jobs, he achieved Malcolm Gladwell’s theory of becoming an expert after spending 10,000 hours doing a thing (which Gladwell outlines in his book, Outliers) Abdi is obsessed with Armistead Maupin’s Tales of the City series, and feels that Maupin’s books have had the most influence over him as a writer Reading James Baldwin makes Abdi “want to do something else,” because Baldwin is so intimidatingly good Sarah suggests writing a couple pages of your finest Flannery O’Connor rip-off and see how it feels to mimic someone else’s voice Tehrangeles is the word for the huge community of Iranians in Los Angeles Alessandra Balzer was Abdi’s editor for The Authentics, and he knew he wanted to keep working with her Abdi shares a quote from Hedwig and the Angry Inch writer and star John Cameron Mitchell about putting your obsessions into your work The Act Up movement was pivotal to drawing attention to the AIDS crisis Right from “Lucky Star,” Madonna’s first song and video, Abdi was obsessed with her Two O.J. Simpson-focused films: O.J. Simpson: Made in America (documentary), and The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story is a good example of Abdi’s dedication to revisiting history Truth or Dare, the documentary about Madonna’s 1990 Blonde Ambition tour Some queer works that Madonna led Abdi to explore include the historic documentary Paris is Burning, Spanish filmmaker Pedro Almodóvar, known for Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown and Talk to Her Abdi is obsessed with RuPaul’s Drag Race Mommy Dearest is one of the films that RuPaul supposedly gives contestants before they come on RuPaul’s Drag Race Abdi is a huge fan of The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron, a 12-week program of creative exercises meant to unblock Tidying Up with Marie Kondo, the Netflix series based on the massively popular book The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up by Marie Kondo Subscribe To First Draft with Sarah Enni Every Tuesday, I speak to storytellers like Veronica Roth, author of Divergent; Michael Dante  DiMartino, co-creator of Avatar: The Last Airbender; John August, screenwriter of Big Fish, Charlie’s Angels, and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory; or Rhett Miller, musician and frontman for The Old 97s.

Amy Gentry's live event at BookPeople Bookstore in Austin, Tx.

We are enjoying "Sex Education" on Netflix. Quite charming. Julia "speed listened" today's book. More on that Fyre concert disaster. Guest is Amy Gentry, author of "Last Woman Standing". "The Unknown Singer" update.

The author of” Good is Gone” has a terrific 2nd novel of suspense out and we could not put it down. Dana Diaz is an aspiring stand-up comic – a woman in a “man’s world”. When she meets Amanda Dorn after bombing at a comedy night they realize they have a common bond. They both work in a male dominated field (Amanda is a computer programmer) and they have both been wronged. Then Amanda talks Dana into a plan….for revenge. What happens next simply has to be read. This is the first book of 2019 that Hollywood should be fighting over!

Join us this Wednesday as we speak with author Amy Gentry

Can't wait for next week's interview with Amy Gentry, author of "Last Woman Standing". Elvis would have been 84 today. The February special has an amazing lineup. Marley joins us for a Bachelor recap. Lisa Vander Pump is Andy's Clubhouse.

Horror writers like Stephen King and thriller writers like Gillian Flynn make us fear for their characters and look over our own shoulders. But it’s not as easy as writing, “Suddenly someone jumped out of the dark!” How do novels create that spooky, white-knuckle effect? In October, WLT Program Director Michael Noll spoke about these topics and more with writers Amanda Downum, Meg Gardiner, Amy Gentry, and Scott Johnson.

Join us this Wednesday as we speak with author Amy Gentry about her debut novel

For the eighth episode of The BodPod, Amy Gentry and I conducted a mutual interview. Amy writes The Good Eye, a column on style, culture, and feminism that appears every week in the Austin Chronicle. The BodPod was featured in her January 9th column. Amy holds a PhD in English from the University of Chicago and reviews fiction for the Chicago Tribune. She writes her own fiction as well, and is currently working on a novel that she describes as a "Houston mother-daughter noir." We covered a lot of ground in Part One: parental body policing; exercise in high school and beyond; changing fashion creating new insecurities, mainly for women; dance. In Part Two, Amy discusses her experience as an advocate for Safe Place, an organization that provides safety for individuals and families affected by sexual and domestic violence. We also discussed other issues, including Amy's horror fiction inspired by her Safe Place experience, and our feelings about Texas and post-Wendy Davis filibuster. Both parts are solid!
