Tim (author), LeeAnna (wearer of unusual hats) and Seth (rather private citizen) talk through the strange (and at times frightening) topics of the fallibility of memory and how that affects self-identity; they consider how writers of creative fiction can employ that in character development (including backstory development). Some thoughts on maintaining momentum in the astoundingly difficult task of actually finishing writing a novel.
