WORDS
Generally, now, she leaves the kids out
of her writing; memoir, story, whatever.
Though not her husband, a lawyer and
a blacksmith. Yes, I wanted to question
that myself, but didn't : a lawyer, and a
blacksmith? "I really tried not to talk about
the kids now, other than where they work
and what they do." Emmett owns a landscaping
business; Jessie, a painter, is studying neurological
rehabilitation; Virginia, the youngest, is a corporate
lawyer in Manhattan. "People say, 'Well, how do
they feel now?' and I say: 'Why don't you call them
up and ask them? It's not my job.'"
