About this listen
This week’s guest is Beth Uznis Johnson (Coming Clean, Regal House, January 2024). Beth turned her lifelong interest in what people’s belongings say about them into a novel centered on a cleaning lady at a crossroads and how one week with 5 different households helps her make life-altering decisions. We discuss the value of WFWA’s weekly virtual write-ins, how continuing education is a mantra for her, and how writing short stories at the same time she’s writing novels helps her not only flex her creative muscles but enhances her platform as a writer.
Beth Uznis Johnson has published fiction and creative nonfiction in Massachusetts Review, Cincinnati Review, Story Quarterly, Mississippi Review, Best American Essays 2018, and elsewhere. Her first novel, Coming Clean, was released by Regal House Publishing on January 9, 2024. She was the recipient of the 2017 McGinnis-Ritchie Award from Southwest Review and a finalist in the 2019 Mississippi Review fiction contest. She has an MFA in fiction from Queens University of Charlotte and lives in Chicago.
