The book that took me the longest to figure out, find the right setting and voice for, spanned about twenty years from start to finish. I published many books in the interim, and I think they all fed the work-in-progress one way or another. It was worth the wait because I got a rave review in The Washington Post where I was compared to Kafka, John LeCarré, and Phillip Roth.
Writers turned artists fascinate me (as do musicians turned artists), thank you for sharing the link!

what a nice win
I was thrilled. Perhaps the highest compliment a reviewer ever gave me.
