My family got away to Izu. We had been there before about five years ago. It was fun being in the Ocean again. Back home I hadn’t had a chance to swim in the sea because I was on my bicycle all the time and I didn’t want it to get stolen.

I’m still anxious about my novel. Publishing a novel is something I always wanted to do and now it’s here. At this stage it feels like if there is anything you really want to do then you have to go for it. The pandemic has exposed us all. How long can any of us wait for a cure or any dream we might have?
