Hello Helen, I enjoyed your interview on MindMatters. The question I start with is; Why write? There are billions of books of all kinds in the world. Why would a person choose to read a particular one that is not assigned in a university class? Most current writers seem to write for fame and money, and some find a formula for writing that captures enough interest/conflict to be profitable. This is not a moral judgment.

Another good observation I'd like to riff on in a later piece in this series.
