Amy Bloom : (3) " Nonfiction is both easier and harder to write than fiction. It’s easier because the facts are already laid out before you, and there is already a narrative arc.

What I find interesting is good people doing bad things. " - Amy Bloom " My father would have been spectacularly ill-suited to working for an institution of any kind, and I suspect that, to a lesser degree, that’s true of me, too. " - Amy Bloom
