W: Good morning. I’m from the New York Book Review. Could I ask you some questions about your latest book?
M: Sure. Take a seat... What would you like to know?
W: First, I’ve heard that your latest book is based on a true story.
M: That’s correct. It’s a murder mystery based on actual murders in Florida several years ago. The main character—the police investigator—is based on the man who investigated the case.
W: How do you research your books?
M: I always visit the places that I use as setting for stories. Readers like things to be as actually correct as possible—even in fiction! I usually base my characters on people I have met. Most characters are a mixture of the characters of two or more people.
W: I really like your books. I’ve just finished this one. I read it from cover to cover in a single day. Congratulations on making the bestseller list yet again!
M: Thank you. Let me sign it for you.
W: Oh! Thank you very much. I heard that you are currently writing a collection of short stories. What are the stories about?
M: There’s a real mix of stories in the book. I haven’t finished all of them yet, though.[8]Many of them are short detective stories, but there are also horror stories and science fiction ones. If you give me your business card, I’ll make sure you get an advance copy to review.
W: Thanks very much. I’m sure it will sell well. I can’t wait to read it. Here’s my card. Thank you for your time.
