 One book at a time... though I'm usually doing the research for others while I'm writing, but that sort of research is fairly desultory and I like to stick to the book being written - and writing a book concentrates the mind so the research is more productive.

 Is the book accurate? Absolutely. While she was writing the book, she and I were in constant communication. She would talk to me about what she was writing and ask me about my memory of things.

If people hate it, then that's great ? at least they have an opinion about it.

 I think the writing for this book is extraordinary. And that's why we call it 'Above and Beyond,' because it really is above and beyond what we expected.

 I have always liked it, it is still my favorite book. I do not like my writing, but I like this book. . . . I wish I liked my own writing more, but like all of us, I am trapped inside my own skin.
  William Goldman

I like to rub their noses in it.
  John Irving
