David Lindsay FAT Girlfriend should appeal to anyone who enjoys comedy, action, adventure, thriller, romantic, humour, road-trip, and Mister Men novels. In short, my target reader is anyone who's prepared to stump up a pound or so to buy it. The accuracy of the motorway journeys and the train trips means you could also use it in place of satellite navigation or a railway timetable, so nobody has an excuse not to buy it, really.
David Lindsay A Dell Inspiron. It's as old and as slow as I am, but seeing as I have a typing speed similar to an arthritic sloth on Tamazepan it makes little difference.

Author's Note: "The similes in my book are much better than this one." **

** This is a lie. For many more lies, read FAT Girlfriend.
David Lindsay It's not really inspiration that I need to write. I'm an incredibly grumpy and unsociable person and if I'm writing it means I don't have to talk to anyone.

My friends and family encourage me to write as often as possible.
David Lindsay I was incredibly bored in a business meeting one day, and decided to write about what thoughts were in my mind. It's not pretty, and even I'm disturbed when I read it back. However, it became one of the chapters for FAT Girlfriend, and I built the rest of the book around it.

I was sacked from that job soon afterwards.
David Lindsay I'm sorry. I really can't think of anything to say about this.
