Listorious Interview
I'm in the process of publishing my seventh book. A sci-fi farce. And music? Only blues for me.
I don't have a set genre. But I do have a recent liking for historical fiction and sci-fi. I'm not sure what will come next though.
Wow Angie, that's a real Life, The Universe and Everything question. But I suppose in my case the books that had the longest lasting effect upon me were 1984, Lord of the Flies, The Grapes of Wrath and Atlas Shrugged. All modern classics I know, but they all made a difference to me.
It will probably turn green and hopefully retire an overworked whale who needs to go back to eating tiny little shrimp and plankton.
Because I don't take this life thing too seriously. Well, the breathing, eating and drinking bits I do take very seriously, but the money, bills, taxes and politicians leave me rather unexcited. If you are a celebrity I wouldn't advise following me though as I'm a bit hard to impress. And anyway, most of you live close by so why not just drop in for a cuppa?
When I'm not asleep or occupied in the bathroom.
Life, the universe and everything. I blame the influence of Douglas Adams for my inability to stay focussed on any one topic.
