Oh, that's a fascinating interview - I have it open in a tab and I'm reading it right now. Thank you for digging that up!
You're welcome! I had wanted to source the bit about the Nesbit contest before dropping it into comments and the rest of it turned out to be extremely relevant. I was also interested by her comment about wanting to do more with Jane. I wonder if she ever meant to return to the characters.
I definitely found that happening to me with Alaska during my 20-something years when I was living elsewhere, which was the only time in my life to date that I ever really wrote about it much.
That's really neat. I had sort of the opposite experience: I did not start to write deliberately about the Boston area until I had moved back to it.
