Advice for writers of local and family history and memoirs. Nick, many thanks for agreeing to subject yourself to this interview. Your work includes much literary biography and poetry. Is your work in each separate genre informed by your work in the other genre? Do you have any particular habits or quirks of work, particular hours when you write, lucky charms, pets in position, days of the week etc. If so, how do they help? Do you think that the writing of biographies has much to teach us.
