Geoff Dyer comes to Books at Noon this week to discuss discuss his latest work, White Sands.
Join him on Wednesday, May 11 at 12 PM!
When and where do you like to read?
Increasingly on planes when I'm free from the terminal distraction of the internet. Other than at, at home with my feet up - the feet must be up and I must have a pencil to hand.
What were your favorite books as a child?
I liked the Beatrix Potter books with all those fun animals like Jeremy Fisher and Squirrel Nutkin.
Do you have any strange writing habits (like standing on your head or writing in the shower)?
No, just a desk and chair.
What are five words that describe your writing process?
Intermittent, occasional, infrequent, often abandoned.
How have libraries impacted your life?
The first books I read as a boy were in the local library in Cheltenham where I grew up. And at school from the age of 12 we had a record library with all the latest and best prog rock albums.
