Lauren Wissot interviewed Marcy for The House Next Door, the official blog of Slant Magazine.

“Are you a fan of Lolita?” DJ Kory begins his interview with Marcy at Break Thru Radio. You can listen to the Book Talk segment as stream or download the mp3.

The Current Reader (“just the best in new books”) interviewed Marcy about good girls gone bad, movie adaptations, and the most rebellious thing she’s ever done.

MD:   I love the idea of being a screenwriter. More specifically, being the screenwriter at the premiere at  Sundance, and then, naturally, in the audience at the Oscars. But when it comes to writing the screenplay, I think I’d prefer someone else to do it.

At The Nervous Breakdown, Marcy interviewed herself about unsympathetic characters, escargot, and her favorite baby nicknames. You can also read an excerpt from Bad Marie, which involves escargot as well.

Marcy was interviewed by Meg Pokrass for the blog of the literary community Fictionaut.  From the interview:

I should hold a contest: how many movie references are in Bad Marie. Many of my film references were unintentional; some, of course, were. Victor Nunez’s Ruby in Paradise is one of my favorite films of all time. I name a character Ruby in Bad Marie. Ruby works in an industrial laundry — which also happens in the film. Marie says the name Benoit Doniel out loud to herself, repeatedly, and that comes directly from Francois Truffaut’s Stolen Kisses. I borrowed the name Ludivine for my sick cat in the novel from French actress Ludivine Sagnier. Etc.

Marcy talked to Ed Champion for the Bat Segundo Show, “the world’s best literary podcast” (Largehearted Boy.) You can listen to the 40-minute podcast here.

Founded in 1994, Levi Asher’s LitKicks is one of the oldest literary sites on the web. Marcy talked with Levi about good and evil, parenthood, and Goodnight Moon:

I wonder if writing this book was my way of telling myself I wanted a baby. I sort of think it has to be, but Bad Marie was finished before I became a parent. The final edits were approved two days before I gave birth. I was busy writing that scene in Nice where Marie eats escargots for the first time (a late addition to the novel) when I was supposed to be getting the nursery ready.

This morning, Marcy was a guest on GalleyCat’s Morning Media Menu, discussing French movies, writing, and motherhood. Listen here:
