More Than Interesting

I think the best way to start out is with a quote:

“When you write a book, you need to have more than an interesting story. You need to have a desire to tell the story. You need to be personally invested in some way. If you’re going to live with something for two years, three years, the rest of your life, you need to care about it.”

—Malcolm Gladwell, author (from A Few Thin Slices of Malcolm Gladwell)

I love Malcolm.  Yes, I know you might think his science is suspect.  But he makes me think and even if we don’t draw the same conclusions or have differing opinions, thinking is a good thing in general.
