What is the aim or goal of your writing: Mr. Manfred comments: "Long ago, I 'gave' all my papers to the Manuscript Division, University Libraries, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, 826 Berry Street in St. Paul. They literally have already tons of all manuscripts to date and when I die they get the rest. Notes, drafts, proofs, galleys, books, diaries, journals, etc." He stated that Of Lizards of Angels "will solidify any reputation I might have" and it was "a book I aimed my whole life to write."
