"A writer is always selling someone out"
Joan Didion's words of forty years ago : How true they are.
(and forty years on Joan is still at it; here's a review of the book she wrote after a year of family tragedy)
Laban, Did you ever read that wonderful piece Didion wrote about John Wayne? I loved when I read it, and kept the clipping. It was all the more powerful coming from a 'contemporary' kind of person like her.
