I may be able to find out if her agent is Melanie Jackson...possible....
   
  Aside: This woman's father is quoted as implying to her that if you study something else [besides English or Writing], you have something to write about..  Which remark reminds me of Norman Mailer saying the same thing----he majored in engineering to get metaphors and perpective on his experiences, he said, I think......A-and, since I figure TRP musta read Stormin' Norman in his formative years, I've occasionally wondered if TRP first majored in engineering under the influence, since he ALWAYS wanted to be a writer first......
   
  Just wonderin'
