Whenever Congress was in session, we were in Washington. So four months out of the year we were in Tennessee and the rest of the time in Arlington, which is where my mom grew up.

Certainly, in my fictional depiction of it, there are decent, shameless people on both sides at every level. Kristin Gore decentdepictiondepth share on social
It's all discipline and schedule for me. I mean, it's very easy to get distracted by the real world and things that intrude constantly, and it takes dedication to live totally in your head and be tuned out. Kristin Gore constantlydedicationdiscipline share on social
