en Not write what you know, but know what you write. If you write about a world before, after, or other than this one, enter that world completely.

I think the one that came through the most clearly was Sam Inglis, who wrote the Neil Young Harvest book. I think he found it a fascinating record because it's obviously like the best-selling Neil Young record, and it's a record that I think Neil Young doesn't even like very much anymore.
