I’ve had really beautiful interactions with people that way. So it was on the street, you know, cycling - you stop at a traffic light, and there’s another cyclist, and they’ve seen the show. I don’t like to go there because I don’t like when my feelings are hurt. I looked at Twitter - I’m talking like three or four times - because I’m used to, from my previous experiences, reading people’s tweets into a tweet that hurts feelings. A year later, have you had the chance to have any face-to-face conversations about it?Īctually, most of my finding out about the response was through meeting people, either on the street I run every day or walking to pick up a toilet roll. The series came out during lockdown, so I imagine you were mostly getting feedback through the internet and social media. I’m definitely a lot like Arabella in that regard. I need to carve out time and work until I’m lost in the thing I’m finally enjoying it. I think it would probably benefit me to try and be that writer, but I’m not. I’m not one of these writers that writes every day for the sake of writing every day like it’s exercise. Is that reflective of your own writing process? I’ve noticed some friends that only started watching the show a few weeks ago, they think people are real that aren’t real in the show, so I tell them, “Oh, this person isn’t real,” and they’re like, “No, don’t say that, you’re breaking my heart!”Īrabella struggles a lot with writer’s block and writes in bursts of inspiration. Most of the show is fictional, so I don’t even know if it legitimately falls under the category of autofiction. At some point, my life gets boring and isn’t very televisual. I looked at both the lives, including my own, as if they were separate from the writer. When I was writing, it there was my reality, Michaela, Arabella and then the writer, me. No, because I don’t even know where Bella and where Michaela begins. Is it important that other people know where Michaela ends and Arabella begins? I May Destroy You is often billed as a work of autofiction. Oscar Nominees Luncheon: Tom Cruise the Center of Attention, Malala Supports Short Film and 'Everything Everywhere' Cheered
