Unless you had his sleeve in an iron grip. Can’t have been as lame as that if you spoke for over 4 min and he didn’t edge away from you. Unless you had his sleeve in an iron grip.

I hope you like the book. And what do you tell authors, nothing interesting, as it turns out. All I came up with was 'I love your books, I really do. And I hope you NEVER stop writing'... there was some more, but that's the gist of it. I sounded SO LAME! Let me know what you think of Brigid Keenan! I hope you like the book.

I got tips for a couple of new writers (the travel category mostly) from this post. Travel + humour = ideal. Must wait until I get back to Cochin, I think, though.
