A couple of books that were at the tail end of my project.

One of the really interesting ones to me was a writer named Susan Sontag.

And she wrote in like the 70s.

She wrote a book called On Photography.

And so, you know, being a mom, I always had the camera in my hand and I was a horse show mom.

And so I got actually very good at taking pictures.

And I took a lot of pictures.

I was...

I was quite good at it.

So I had a relationship in my head with photography.

But then here comes this woman talking about how photography and memory and reality aren't all the same thing.

And what does that do to how we think about all of them?

So it was a really fun thing.

I had never thought about it before.

And now I think that anybody who walks around with a camera in their pocket, which is basically everyone, should read her thoughts about photography.

how photographs affect your memory.

I was crazy.

I also just finished Theo of Golden, which was one very high on my list that so many people had been reading while I was in the midst of my project.

And so I didn't have time to read it.

So I've just finished it.
