I recently came across this recording (below) of an interview I did for the UAE radio station Eyes On at the Sharjah Children’s Reading Festival back in May. I was incredibly impressed by how much research the presenter had done for this. (This does not always happen…) She had carefully thought through what she wanted to ask and she guided the half hour slot brilliantly. We did it in the busy concourse of the Expo centre but when you’re enjoying a chat all the background noise becomes as nothing.
NOTE: There’s no intro so it starts with the presenter talking, just in case you thought it was me. (I feel really bad that I didn’t catch her name.)
Today’s heat reminds me of that trip, actually. Except that there was aircon everywhere…
