¦ dialling in from workstation ¦
13:32 GMT, Wednesday 6th Feb, 2008. Just bumped into a guy who works in my building, as we congregated around the sandwich-basket-donkey for our morning fix of “something-with-mayonnaise”.
The guy saw me, his eyebrows lifted before smiling, then he said, “You bastard, you’re the reason I got no sleep last night.”
I returned the smile, slightly cautious, kind of knowing what was coming next but not wanting to be presumptive, and then really pleased when the guy said, “I was reading God Seed last night and I couldn’t stop.”
We spent a couple minutes chatting about what he'd read so-far. Brought back all the characters and visuals for me...kind of like getting to watch your favourite film for the first time again. Great stuff.
Nice feeling.
More please.
