My Australian publisher, Shet has asked me to answer some questions about my book.

I open my laptop unless it's already open.

And then I take Why did you name your protagonist, April?

Is it some kind of metaphor here?

Oh, wow, there's a lot of water on the land, Pretty on the page kind of writer like there's not a lot of subtext.

Honestly, I'd like to be pretty explicit, but that being said, I mean, there's reasons they're not really metaphorical, but you don't know that.

How does writing a book change the way you experience other books?

I can tell you what definitely does change it.

I wouldn't say it's better or worse.

First of all, it's harder to not compare myself to good writers and be like, Oh, I'm bad at this second like, yeah, you see more of the process.

You see more of how it works.

I think that that's a deeper understanding, but it's less immersive.

May be different, Not better or worse.

It affects the way that you enjoy them.

Feel like any 5.1 done load would be pretty gross.

Any songs you listen to that inspired the plot or characters in your novel?

I don't listen to music while I'm writing.

I can't do anything.

All I'm writing like White noise.

Maybe, But yes, it will become clear on reading it.

Their number of songs that were inspirational in the book What have you found to be the hottest part of Ronnie book?

Stopping writing is really hard once you've done it for so long, like you so hard to get it out of your mind that you can't change anything anymore.

It's terrible.

I thought of something really great last night that I would make the book better if it was in there, but it's not gonna be.

I did put one thing in the book after it went to press, though.

So it'll be in the second edition and also maybe in the digital additions.

If someone office to make an absolutely remarkable thing into a movie, would you say yes?

I don't know.

I haven't said yes yet to that, So we'll just have to see.

I guess that would be pretty cool.

But it's also a lot of work.

I've seen it.

It's a lot of work.

Loved your book.

Is there a sickle in the works?

All right, that's it.

This idea is going to become a book about when I'm finished.

Why did you write a slash this book and make a lot of stuff?

And there are lots of things that I wanted to talk about, that I haven't found good ways to do that.

And I found that this was a good way to talk about stuff that I wanted to talk about.

It's also a good way to tell a really good story that I was really excited about.

What was the seed for the story that became the book kind of embarrassing but a literal dream.

I had a dream.

Now that's interesting.
