Book of interviews shares tips and techniques of great American journalism

In “Stories Can Save Us,” journalist Matt Tullis explores how the best reporters and writers craft narrative literary journalism.

Tullis uses material gathered in over 75 interviews he conducted with the best narrative and literary journalists in the country through his podcast, Gangrey: The Podcast. With these interviews, Tullis shows how these professionals conceive and write compelling stories.

Tullis interviewed Pulitzer Prize winners, National Magazine Award winners and New York Times best-selling authors. He spoke with reporters of different races and backgrounds, styles and strengths to discover how they find story ideas, how they reach out to potential subjects, how they develop story structure and more.

Through Tullis’ conversations, readers are offered a window into the methods and practices of top-tier journalists and insight on the motivations behind great journalism and how it speaks to the cultural climate of its time.
