id="_idTextSpan40766" >when I was little, while as a teenager at parties I was one of those who, when others were dancing, sat on the sofa, examining them. As a result, I developed the observation skills with a tendency for demolishing others of a recluse. Never mind the fact that I had never been very glib. I only find valid arguments when it’s too late. Can you imagine if I were a defence lawyer? On the other hand, whenever I talk a lot, I end up regretting it completely. I think to myself: “What bullshit did you just blurt out again?” Whereas when I write, I think a lot more about what I’m going to say, because, as it is generally known, scripta manent. That being said, nothing about me ever suggested that I would one day write.

There is a possibility that the opposite is true, i.e. that you wake up at cockcrow because you write.

“Recently, you have been under fire from all sides. From the critics first of all, who, in regards to your book, albeit a bestseller, have not said a single word. A proper slating in other words. Because in contrast to film critics who will never leave a single film un-commented-on there is no worse type of salting for a book than it being snubbed. Subsequently, from a well-known language purist who circulated an entire catalogue of your solecisms and ‘jewels’. A similar list, but with your supposed sexist innuendoes, has been leaked by a feminist organisation. What do you have to say about all of this?”

“Let’s deal with one thing at a time, shall we? First off, regarding the critique. I suspect that it feels uncom-fortable with an interloper suddenly becoming a writ-er. They are afraid of falling for a book that the public has embraced, and that the intellectuals on the other hand read on the sly but are too embarrassed to admit it to anyone. As to the language, what can I say? I can feel the injustice of it all suffocating me. Like the driv-er whom a ball-busting pedestrian questions for illegal parking. Instead of beating the saddle, Mr Babiniotis42, because it is him of course that this is about, would do well to deal with the donkey directly.”
