I was deep in the mountains last week, researching settings of some last dramatic scenes in this novel I’m about to nail. I’m keenly aware of how this first draft is still flexible, molded by all manner of surprises I run across. Soon it will feel fixed and certain, the only novel it ever could have been. Like our lives, I guess. | Barbara Kingsolver
