At a certain level I worry about how much I enjoy being in the spotlight…
Host Steven Hill and me on the set of ASAPubNews
Last night, for example, I was on the set of ASAPubNews being interviewed by host Steven Hill about Glitter in the Sun. I don’t think it would be too much of an exaggeration to say at times I ran away with the show. Although, any video proof of that will not be available for a week or so yet.
It’s interesting, though, what different people key in on when reading a book. Steven was fascinated with the parallel I drew between the Cullens’ dietary choice which resulted in family, and the Christian practice of fasting which results in spiritual growth. This was the first time anyone picked out that chapter as one to focus on and discuss more thoroughly. Of course, this being a Twilight-related book, the issue of sex and abstinence was also a hot topic. What Steven drew out though, was the fact that the world has changed in the past 100 years.

I can’t wait to see how his crew edits our rambling conversation into a cohesive half-hour, and I promise to post links to it here, on Facebook and on Twitter as soon as it’s available.
