Tea Party Autobiography Analysis

Afterword
So much has interested me in writing this manuscript. Tea Party assumptions are the focus, but each assumption led me down interesting paths, some of which I had not explored before. That is certainly true of evolution and immigration. Self-reliance and politics were well-trod paths that I had pursued before having written four other books over the past twenty years. I certainly don’t expect readers to turn to those earlier works, but I don’t think a writer ever fully disengages from earlier paths.

I rather doubt that I will write again as I pursue paths that take me deep in a woods that I don’t know and from which I rather doubt I will emerge
