It's a good metaphor for fears I have about losing my soul in some accidental, mundane way. So, to me, these jobs that my characters have are very loaded. They immediately suggest a complex character to me, a woman who is, say, a secretary, but also a vigilante on behalf of her own soul.

    Jesus   Book   Media

How many juries will convict us when we are caught in these acts of beneficent citizenship?
