I Would Pay To Do What I

Each Generation, We Peel Back Biases That Have Blinded Those Before Us. The More We Know About The Past Enables Us To Ask Richer And More Provocative Questions About Who We Are Today.

I Feel That What I Do Is A Calling. I Would Pay To Do What I Do If I Had To. I Will Never Live Long Enough To Do The Work I Want To Do: The Books I Would Like To Write, The Ideas I Would Like To Explore.

I'm Drawn Particularly To Stories That Evolve Out Of The Character Of The Protagonist.

I Can Fairly Be Called An Amateur Because I Do What I Do, In The Original Sense Of The Word - For Love, Because I Love It. On The Other Hand, I Think That Those Of Us Who Make Our Living Writing History Can Also Be Called True Professionals.

People Are So Helpful. People Will Stop What They're Doing To Show You Something, To Walk With You Through A Section Of The Town, Or Explain How A Suspension Bridge Really Works.
