being a woman writer
"I believe that although the human imagination is boundless, it can only ride on the realities of our individual lives. We dream out of who we are and something of our tangible lives is bound to be part of our writing.. depending on what we are writing about. I can say that there is a lot of me and my life in my first novel. I suspect that, on the obvious level, there isn't very much of me in Changes, and yet I'm also keenly aware that that can only be true on the most facile level, because I believe that we are in what we write, we are part of what it is goes into our writing."
