Grimer Girl here, I'm Minion Foggedy and you can think of me as your friendly guide to

the English language, writing, history, rules, and cool stuff.

Today I have an interview with Bourne Morris, a good friend who didn't write her first

novel, The Red Queen's Run, until after she retired.

She got an agent and got it published and has just now come out with her fourth novel,

A Woman of Two Minds.

She retired right when I started my job as a professor at the School of Journalism

at the University of Nevada and I took over her office through mutual friends and interests.

We became friends and she's a real inspiration to me.

It is never too late to start something new and I want all of you to remember that and

I hope you enjoy the interview.

Thanks for being here today with me, Bourne.

Thank you for asking me, Minion.

Yeah, we're more used to talking over lunch than we are doing an interview.

But you have such an exciting life and so much to teach people about writing a novel

that I thought the audience would love to hear from you.

You have just published your fourth novel, correct?

Correct.

Wonderful.

One of the reasons I wanted to have you on is because you started writing novels publishing

them particularly quite late in life after you actually retired from your position as

a professor at the University of Nevada in Reno.
