Summary

Educating Stephen Fry, teaching Salman Rushdie the limbo, asking Prince William if he wants tongues... It's all in a day's work for the fabulous Kathy Lette! The author of best-selling novels Foetal Attraction and Mad Cows tells us what inspires her, and why mothers never get writer's block. There's some chat about why Australians talk like they do, and the fate of Kylie's gold hotpants. Plus, Kathy gives us her top tips for raising teenagers, and tells us how she came to have a Savoy cocktail named after her. Kathy's latest book, Courting Trouble, is out now. She's on Twitter - @KathyLette. We're on Twitter (@scummymummies), Instagram, and Facebook. Please send your confessions to [email protected] and visit us at ScummyMummies.com.
