How Did You Write a Memoir About Prayer?

The book took a really long time to write and I didn't want to flatten out all those different voices. Some of it reads like fiction, some of it is, reads like the lives of somebody else perhaps. It's a kind of really multi voiced record of all the versions of me that were involved. You know, one of the experiences that I had was the flashback - this quite often happens when people undergo a trauma. So it wasn't that I was sitting in my car remembering a terrible experience. That wasn't how it felt,. How it felt was that I was having the terrible experience that I had become located in several different places and several different times at once.
