Great Regulars: AVC: You write in depth about so many

periods of your life, but skip over college. Why is that?

MK: I think there are a couple reasons. I think when our selves are particularly ill-formed, our memories are likewise ill-formed. At times when my identity was doing a major shift, my point of view was less decisive, and things moved through me like a sieve.

Also a lot of the time it's really boring--I really just worked in college. In most of our lives, the majority of what happens to us is boring.
