What made you write Getting Clean with Stevie Green?
Swan Huntley Oh, wow, Bianca Christine, thanks for asking! I wrote this book because I'm personally obsessed with decluttering and fascinated by the idea of self-help gurus. Unlike my first two books, this one resembles my own life in many ways. It's set in my hometown of La Jolla, California. And it's about a woman who is struggling to come to terms with the fact that she's gay and an alcoholic, which was very much my story. Writing about these subjects through the lens of a fictional character is something I've been meaning to do for a while, and now felt like the time to do it.
