I cut the following text: "She fell in love with a Chinese man. A middle class life wasn't for her and she went astray. She did not feel that she fit into the middle class culture, says a close friend of hers. Her sense of future was not the same as that of her parents. So at sixteen years of age, at around 1970, she ran away from. She wandered about for several years and then met and fell in love with a Chinese man. They lived for several years in Boston where she was a stranger to its culture and rhythm of life. It was a period in time where it seemed like every intelligent and sensitive person in her generation was taking drugs, looking for new possibilities to create other worlds. She too became a drug addict, a junkie, on a bus called Counter-Culture. In an anecdote related by a close friend, she once got busted and had to do community service. What she had to do in part was to recite the lyrics to the James Brown song "King Heaven", doing a dramatic version of it. Despite this judicial education, she remained a drug addict for about nine years. Eventually, she kidked drugs, went to college at the University of Arkansas where she graduated as valedectorin of her class. She then embarked upon a career of publishing her works and teaching.
