Yes, I also enjoyed reading your foray into reviewing, which can be a mean craft. More would be nice.

I did find the “wrote it in 4 months” part interesting. Maybe that simply means he typed off and on for 4 months. Really good works of literature are being written (as they germinate) through years and years of experience, of thinking, of feeling, and then there is the typing. Something actually written in 4 months usually looks like it.

This was a great interview/review! You should certainly do more of them in the future.

I’m so glad my christmas present paid off!

Yes, I do like this new feature. I only wish I could finish more books during a year. Like my knitting, finished objects are few and far between.

This was very engaging. I really like hearing about how the book was constructed. I’d like to read more of this sort of thing for sure.
