It's so wonderful to have you here. I'm your number one. Got it
0:08
It's gotta be surreal. It's a tour inside my own head. Yes it is
0:16
To see a whole different incarnation of what you wrote, and then
0:20
the moon theme, and then a mix, or a blend. The thing is, the audience
0:24
has a ball. We were on the Concord, we were going to England and I fell asleep and I had a dream about a woman who had a pig that she had named after a romance writer
0:37
And she got the writer and in the story, which was called the Annie Wilkes edition, she was going to get him to write the book, then kill him and find the book in his skin
0:50
Feed him to the pig and find the book in his skin

We got to London, we were staying at Brown's Hotel. We had two little kids. I couldn't sleep. They all fell asleep, but I was like jet lagged
1:02
And I had this idea, I wanted to write it. And I went downstairs and I said, is there a place where I can write? And they gave me tea
1:09
They sat me at this beautiful desk on the landing between what they call the bottom floor and the first floor
1:15
And I wrote all night. And I drank tea and I got the first two or three chapters all written longhand
1:21
and the guy said after I said that was fantastic he said well you know that was
1:27
Rudyard Kipling's death he died at it well you give great Annie you give great Paul
1:41
I hope you'll be very happy together
