Joy Lane on Six Years at City College and the Engineering of a Breaking Point

Written by:
Six years at City College. Thirteen restaurant jobs. Calculus III three times. By 23, Joy Lane was lying in the grass, ready to walk away from her last final and everything she'd worked for.
In F College: A Memoir of Doubt, Self-Discovery, and Resilience, Joy goes back to that breaking point and walks readers through her final semester, building her story the way an engineer builds a system, with equilibrium, stress, and failure points.
In this episode of Author Hour, she joins Lex Statzer to talk about the classroom moment that convinced her to tell her story, what her ADHD diagnosis changed, why community college deserves more credit, and how a provocative title survived a team poll. She also shares her writing routine of two pages a day, why editing was harder than writing, and her advice for anyone afraid to start their own book: do it for yourself first.
