 Theres Nothing In This Book.... Penny Sansevieri: Hello and welcome to the Fascinating Authors Radio Show and I am very pleased to have Paul Poundstone with us today. Paula welcome to the show. Paula Poundstone: Well thank you so much I'm so impressed with myself for being on a show called Fascinating Authors. Penny Sansevieri: Well you are a fascinating author and you have the most incredible book Paula. It's called There's Nothing in this Book That I Meant to Say and it is laugh out loud funny. Paula Poundstone: That's so nice to hear. It took a long time to write this book. It took me something like nine year. Penny Sansevieri: Nine years? Paula Poundstone: Yeah. You know I'm not a writer for a living and so I don't have sort of dedicated time you know to write and certainly one of the problems I wrote it by hand neatly. That was another thing that slowed me down and as you well know my book is a series of biographies of towering historic figures and in the telling of their story I tell my own. Therefore I had to research each figure and that slowed me up a bit as well. Perhaps a fair amount of lack of self discipline might have been in there as well. |
