Sometimes Family Members Will Ask To Be Kept Out Of Certain Things That I'm Writing, And I Try To Respect That. I'd Much Rather Have Relatives Than A Book.

I Am Very Timid About Speaking For The Collective. I Can Say What I See, I Can Say What I've Heard, I Can Say What I Feel, But I Can't Speak For - No One Can Speak For - 10 Million People, And It Takes Away Something From Them If You Make Yourself Their Voice.

People Aren't Really Aware Of What's Happening In Other Places.
