“This is an excellent memoir plus journalistic reporting on the event and the process forming it. I enjoyed your writing immensely. You remember some details I don't plus it is interesting to hear the emotional viewpoint from inside your mind your persona. I was also new to the group so was going through some of the same self-evaluations. All told it was a very creative, groundbreaking show & experience!” Roberta Chambers
