Yeah, what ever the hell she wants! Marianne Date: Wed, 26 Dec 2012 17:04:29 -0800 (PST) From: Catherine McKay Subject: Re: Zadie Smith piece Can't disagree with that - at all! I love what Zadie Smith had to say about Joni. So impressed was I with her writing that I got "White Teeth," which I hadn't read (I did read "On beauty" a couple of years ago and quite enjoyed that.) I do love what Zadie Smith has to say and admire her writing style very much. Once I'm done that, I'll move on to something else. Some people do expect Joni (and whomever else they are fans of) to be the same all the time, and to keep giving them their particular fix, little realizing that these artists are also people too and that they change and grow, as we all do; that they have their own needs and wants and their own Things They Want To Do that may have little or nothing to whatever our needs and wants are. Joni can do whatver the hell she wants. Whether I like it or not isn't even an issue. She has given me so much that I could never possibly repay her. And she doesn't even know me. And she owes me nothing. Goddess bless her! >________________________________ ------------------------------ End of JMDL Digest V2012 #1884 ****************************** ------- To post messages to the list, sendtojoni@smoe.org.
