    Mike Erganian: What is the subject of your book? Non fiction?
    Miles Raymond: Uh, no. It’s… it’s a novel. Fiction. Yes. Although there is quite a bit from my own life… so I suppose that, technically some of it is nonfiction.
    Mike Erganian: Good I like non fiction. There is so much to know about this world. I think you read something somebody just invented, waste of time.
    Miles Raymond: That’s an interesting perspective.

    Interesting. Fiction has shaped my conception of reality just as much as non-fiction. Maybe moreso, since the nuts and bolts of non-fiction are pretty damn easy to figure out an repeat, repeat, repeat, over time. Fiction, tho, is always a surprise. (Well, not always. THere’s lots of turrible fiction out there.)Report
