I'm not one for mysteries however, I'm very interested in Card's approach to writing. I was getting ready to purchase Stephen King's "On Writing" but I'm going to have to include Card's book as well. Most of my writing has suffered in the ways that Card had described so it will be invigorating for me to get away from that. I think it will open up a new frontier for me. Thanks again Karen for writing of this and glad you were able to get the interview. Can't say I am familiar with his work but now there is a reason to be. It was funny, Im a huge fan of George Carlin because I like how he approaches the subject of language. Some may call him foul but I've always felt there was more to consider than the laughs he would induce. I've felt a vein of truth about how we use language and how it has evolved or de-evolved. Off the subject a bit but thanks for the recommendation and take care.
