Lauren Smith: When did you first realize you wanted to be a writer?

Hot and Bothered By It
Phyllis Johnson: When I was a young girl, I got a typewriter and soon found myself writing neighborhood newsletters for my large surrounding family (my Dad had 7 siblings, a number of whom lived nearby with their families). I also liked to write funny classified ads at that time, a hint of what was to come. Later I wrote a weekly humor column for five years for a newspaper.

Lauren Smith: What inspired you to write this book?

Phyllis Johnson: One day my husband joked with me about how in a few years he was going to be thrilled to get a senior discount on drinks, etc. I looked at him and said, well when that time comes, you can go ahead and tell them what your age is and I'll be standing back here... One poem came from that conversation and soon found myself writing enough to fill a book.
