"I am completely artistically drained - in a cleansing and beautiful way - the way it is supposed to work. First you live it, then you write about, then reread and relive it- which in a way is harder the second time around. It’s my story but I am honored to share stories of your friends and mine like Larry Kegan, Bill Hinkley, Sue McLean, Jeanne Peterson, Willie Murphy, Willie Walker and more. For me, these stories keep them alive and me as well. When I got my book deal to write "Blue Guitar Highway," - my dad, Elder Metsa, said, “Tell the truth, son.” I did that here as well."Paul Metsa
