Id arrived at my church where I was to discuss one of my books with a morning book club. The women showed up one by one. A plane crashed into the world trade center, one of them said, and we expressed sadness and surprise that such a thing could happen. The next woman to arrive told us of a second plane, and chills and disbelief settled over us. We pulled out our phones, trying to get news from the outside world. One of the women looked up from her phone in horror. A plane crashed into the Pentagon. That was our backyard. We left the building and drove to a nearby restaurant to tearfully watch the horror unfold on TV, our purpose for getting together forgotten. I have never cared less about my books.
