First off, I didn't know she was still alive. Reading her bio above, it's interesting that she never published another book after TKAM.

It's sort of like when Axel Rose was recording his solo album for many years, and not being satisfied. I think he finally did release something and it stunk. I guess Harper Lee was afraid that she would tarnish TKAM by writing junk. Maybe some writers only have one real novel in them. And that was hers. And what a novel to be your only one.
