“I didn’t know where to start. I got a job where I could travel. I think somewhere in the back of my mind I thought maybe I’d run into you somewhere or at least come across some sort of sign you’d been somewhere—something so that I could at least be sure you existed, that you weren’t some figment of my imagination. But everywhere I went, I could tell right away you weren’t there.”

“And there was fear in the writing. Fear that they would be misinterpreted, yes, but greater than that was the fear that they’d never be interpreted at all. That no one would read them and find me there.”
