Quote: "Matters. Well, kind of to get back to life is not black and white. There's a lot of gray area, and as a novelist you get to explore those gray areas. You get to delve into places that you might not, if you were just writing about something that actually happened. There was one famous writer, and I can't remember who it was, but said, that a novel or novelist get closer to the truth than. A memoirist, you get closer to the truth. And I do believe that because I just think, it's a wonderful way to be able to use a lot of tools and experiment and go deeper. Look behind the curtain, right, as they say."
