Mary Roach
Unique Niche Writer
Taboo health and medical topics with underlying humor are the specialty of author Mary Roach. When asked for advice for aspiring writers during a recent three-hour call-in appearance on C-SPAN, she replied in part, “I would tell them be your own quirky unique self…”
Fascinating interview, but not for the queasy.
