I just am trying to find a way to get to whatever is happening after this." Irby refers to her memoir as a survival guide, of sorts: "I have some tools and tricks that if people want to adopt, it'll get them from point A to point B, because that's essentially what I'm doing," she says. She also writes about almost getting a popular cable network to adapt her first book into a TV show - the operative word being almost. In the book, Irby chronicles a variety of funny situations, including her rise as a TV writer on the Hulu series Shrill and the trials of getting turned away at swanky LA restaurants for not dressing hip enough. She says the deaths of her own parents when she was 18 opened her up to living life on her own terms - and writing about it: "Excuse the callousness of this, but it's real: Dead parents, you can do whatever you want. The title of Irby's new memoir in essays, Quietly Hostile, was inspired by her own public persona, which she describes as a "a constant low-grade frustration with everything" wrapped in "an outer shield of Midwestern politeness and charm." "If I can't have a conversation with a stranger about the thing that I wrote, I won't put it in a book." "When you put a book out into the world, you have to be prepared for people to talk to you about it until you die," she says. So is there such a thing as oversharing? Irby says whatever she writes about, she has to be prepared for it to follow her for a long time. She's made a career out of writing about these things, and spinning them into comedy.
