“I miss you more than words can say.

Although she tried different methods and sat for many book interviews, she could not figure out how to write about herself,” Keough written in the book’s introduction. “She didn’t find herself interesting, although, of course, she was. She didn’t like to talk about herself. She was unsure.”
Keough added, “She wasn’t sure what she was worth to the public other than being Elvis’ daughter. She was so obsessed with self-criticism that working on the book became extremely difficult for her. I don’t think she fundamentally understands how or why her story should be told.”

She continued, “The last 10 years of her life had been so brutally hard that she could only look back on everything through that lens. She felt I could get a more holistic view of her life than she could. So I agreed to help him with it, not thinking much of the commitment, assuming we would write it together over time. A month later, he died.”
