Sisters In Crime Now Has More Than

I Had A Fantasy As A Child That I Might Be A Writer Someday. I Always Thought That Meant You Went To New York Or Paris. But After That Intense Summer, I Never Thought That I Wanted To Live Any Place But Chicago. It Also Made Me See What The Stakes Were In The Civil Rights Movement. And It Made Me See What Real Hatred Was Like And The Forms That It Took. But It Also Made Me Understand How Powerless Ordinary People Feel In Their Lives.

It Took Me Nine Months To Write 60 Pages. It Was Very Frustrating

Sometimes Life Seems So Painful It Hurts Even To Move My Arms.

I Admire About Hillary: Every Time I Am Going To Walk Away From Her Candidacy, I Think, She Has Absorbed More Hate Than Anyone I Can Think Of Over The Past Twenty Years, And She Hasn't Cracked Under It. That's A Kind Of Iron Fortitude That Maybe We Need In The President Of The United States. People Project On To Hillary Because She Is A Woman. They Either Hate Her For Everything They Hate About Women Or They Long For Her To Be Everything They Want In A Woman. It's An Impossible Burden.

I Cannot Find Words To Express The Depth Of My Loss Or Outrage About What's Happening To This Country. I Don't Know If I Can Find The Words For It, But If This Country Ever Recovers, It Will Not Be In My Lifetime. If I Were Elected President, The First Thing I Would Do Would Be To Set Up A Department Of Restoring The Bill Of Rights. I Would Have 10,000 People Working There.
