Memoir describing Schultz's persona method of writing designed to overcome the writer's self-doubt by borrowing the well-known voices of Hemingway, Joan Didion, and others. Schultz recounts his 1972 road trip to Hemingway's grave in Ketchum, which resulted in an unexpected visit with Mary Hemingway and invitation to Hemingway's study.
