Q: If you could travel back in time, which of the great writers would you like to meet and why?
A: Virginia Woolf – I very much admire the way she focuses on characters’ inward lives, making the minutiae universal.
Q: What is the first book you remember reading or having read to you as a child?
A: Sarah’s Unicorn (quasi-namesake and unicorns!)
Q: Is there a book that you keep going back to, and if so, how many times have you read it?
A: Little Women by Louisa May Alcott. But not all of it, just certain sections. I think it’s comfort more than anything else.
Q: What superpower would you like to have and why?
A: Teleportation, because I want to see everywhere.
