I would love to take a tutorial with Toni Morrison on anything she wanted to talk about. But in particular, I would love to hear her on how to merge historical truth and narrative truth seamlessly.

Thank you so much for these prompts and invitations. I have a Lot to learn and I would be lucky to learn from anyone but lately I've been revisiting Jhumpa Lahiri's Interpreter of Maladies as I read her newer work that's translated from the Italian, and I'm so admire-ous of the way she observes the tiny daily things that fill a character's heart (and the reader's heart for them), and of course her way with language and it's limitations. I wonder what each book and the ways they've been felt, interpreted, and critiqued has been like for her...
