So she had just finished Wise Blood,and people are
-
starting to read it, ask her questions.
-
She was a prolific correspondent.
-
She was very generous in her letter writing.
-
She would write to almost anyone who wrote to her.
-
She would write back in a substantive way.
-
I think it's in part that, suffering from lupus, she was very
-
much confined to her house in Georgia,
-
and the letter writing, this kind of correspondence,
-
was certainly a way for her to keep in contact with the world of readers
-
and other writers and friends.
-
So he had written to her.
