The book tries to solve a mystery.
And that mystery is the most exciting thing about the book to me.
There's something about Scott that...
nobody understood and the book will tell you oh joel you tease first the tank top and now this it's it's an incredible i mean to to to find
this about Scott was just the most incredible thing.
I mean, Josh and I, and Josh, if you're watching, don't spill the beans.
Josh and I sat there, Josh, we were talking about this and I sat there for a moment and just realized what we had just discovered.
And there were no words really for a while.
So I think there's a mystery here that,
I have to bring out a little bit more in the third draft because I've only uncovered it as I've gone along.
And in that sense, this has probably been the most exciting project I've ever done because you write things, you think you are sharing your ideas with people, you're telling an audience something that you know about.
But to have a project where you discover something that you didn't know before and didn't even know to ask about before,
is pretty incredible.
So there's a really exciting realization that I had.
I had it last week in Cincinnati while Josh and I were working.
And I now understand what the mystery is that the book has to solve.
I do.
The last biography I wrote, the first biography I wrote was about 600 pages, too long.
Too long.
The temptation when you write a biography is to put so much into it.
