    Amazing how sane and sense-making two crazy people can seem in a three-person interview format. I'll leave it to the readers of the interview to suss who is who is who. Seriously, inspiring material here about the creation of character, how character creates indelible text, and how character takes over creator.

    thanks to all. i was in roma when trying to respond to meg's questions, which were wonderful & invasive--felt like whoa---did she really ask THAT? @ jim, i certanly volunteer for crazy, having spent the entire day in that zip code today. if character can take over creator, then wish it would happen today. would love to shed this particular skin.

    All right! Great stuff! (But I'm betting had you met, the book still would have been written. Somethings are just fated.)
