I did not think that I was angry, but clearly anger was reflected in my writing. I did not think that I had been affected emotionally, but it was clear from my writing that I was still very emotional about the trial some six months after it ended.

It would have been easier to have a male protagonist, but I didn't want people to assume that Nikki Hill was me in her entirety because a lot of people just don't like me and I don't think they would be interested in reading about me, even in the fictional context.

I think that as I continue to write, my writing I hope will become more controversial and more provocative.

Its much like writing a screenplay with someone else and thats how we view it, I think.

I think my perspective is unique, and I want to make sure that perspective is memorialized and preserved.
