But Absurdistan pulled it off just right, and from the sound of this interview, this book sounds hella intriguing. Maybe I'll steal it from you. Fictional countries are risky business.

I am grinnin' ear-to-ear. Knowing how much you loved it and reading this delightful interview, I'm really excited to get my hands on it. I liked Eleanor's honesty in how "writing fiction can begin to feel as impossible as flying". It really describes the commitment a writer has to have for their craft. It seems as if they have to keep the juices flowing or well-oiled. Also, I liked her answer regarding superstitions or protocols towards writing; it made me grin. And, last but not least, I had a great visual and good memory at the mention of La Jolla, CA. We visited there a few years ago and really enjoyed it. Many thanks. THANK YOU, Jessica!
