Mary is not just a writer — she’s a brave woman to throw me a word like “Reality.” There’s no telling where I might go with that! These three things took me in directions I didn’t expect, but that’s the point of this serial — to let the words all of you supply drive the plot … More Three Things Serial: 17 – Associate, Challenge, Reality
