Summary

What a pleasure to speak to 98 year old Betty Fussell! She praised her Scottish genes. Her book, How to Cook a Coyote: The Joy of Old Age, is a nod to M.F.K. Fisher and her book, How to Cook a Wolf. But the wily coyote is a trickster and shape shifter, always there for both good and bad. Listen to our conversation. Betty lays out her current project and the pains of finding a story line in her book. All writers will be able to identify with the struggle, which Betty faces with humor despite blindness and the limits of age. Listen. It’s on Tip of the Tongue.
