Big Think Interview with John Irving

When I was 19 or 20 and completely unsure of what kind of novels I wanted to write, John Irving was a tremendous inspiration to me. I remember being enthralled by Garp, among other characters.

As always, best in writing, and I'm sure John is tired of hearing this, but my thanks to him for the inspiration all those years ago!
