OK, but…as she said last March: “In advance, I'll say I won't be able to engage this much further. (I've already lost a bit of time I'm supposed to be working on something else); but again thanks for your reading of my work.”

“You’re too amused.”

“All souls will wonder.”
I didn’t “do it.” I didn’t send the above email draft (initially titled “Literary life for a democratic ethos”). I recognized it might be frightening to her.
