Hi Garrett,

I think it is about Joni's creative process and not a bio.  I just
imagine Joni writing copious volumes of her long-awaited bio over the
past several years and maybe has already written a lot of material on
her creative approaches that she might use in connection with working
with Marom on the book.  Pure speculation but we all know how she loves
to relate lots of stories, thoughts and opinions on everything under the
sun. Maybe discussion of those processes might naturally include some
small amount of biographical detail with regard to other artists she
worked with/contributed to her music over the years, e.g., Guerin,
Mingus, Klein and more.  I'm looking forward to this one.
