Totally Not Suspicious Horse #43697  “Bruce, Who Is Totally NOT A Kelpie Guys”

A few weeks back I saw an interview with this book’s author and was fascinated. I spied the book at the Chicago Public Library, so I swooped in and grabbed it. Enemies in Love is not really a “romance,” it is a non-fiction book about the slow integration of the country and the issues surrounding it, and how those issues swirled around one particular couple, Elinor and Frederick, a black nurse and a German POW who met at a POW camp during WWII.

Person: Writing isn’t that hard

Me, an intellectual: writing is that hard. Why do you think so many writers are alcoholics 

Writing isn’t hard. My grandfather was a coal miner–that was hard. On the other hand … publishing is a b!+¢H. Somedays, putting on a hard hat and going down a hole seems like a better deal. I mean, you might die, and you’ll definitely get black lung, but there’s insurance for the first and public assistance for the last. At least you know you’ll get paid at the end of the day, and you’re not setting your children up for poverty.
