Hi Paul, I heard you're working on a new book. What is it about?
It's about an adventurous girl who lives in village drowning, a town surrounded by beasts.
It sounds thrilling. Why did you decide to write such a book?
I visited a friend about 2 months ago. He has a daughter, who was very shy. She doesn't dare talk to other people. So I decided to write a book about bravery to encourage her.
How much have you finished?
About 1/3. I think I'll finish it within 2 months.
What will you do after you finish it?
Well, I think I deserve a holiday. I've been writing all the time.
