The Sirap Review
An Interview With Courtenay S. Gray — Parody
Miss Gray finishes making her breakfast, consisting of two poached eggs on a bed of tomatoes and onions. We sit down at her round glass kitchen table, taking gulps of water from the wine glasses she has given us. The moon is still out, and the city is just waking up to face another day. Gray picks out a record and carefully places the needle in the groove. After ten minutes, she has finished eating her breakfast. — Lolly Lavender & Havisham Joop, 2045
Gray:
Are we ready to begin?
Interviewer:
Would you mind telling us how you came to be a writer?
Gray:
I haven’t got an answer for that as I was practically born doing this. I didn’t have a mentor to inspire me. Becoming a writer was an individual decision, but it was always going to be the right one. If any part of my life is predestined, then it’s my becoming a writer.
Interviewer:
Did you begin writing any particular genre?
Gray:
I was very passionate about fantasy when I was a child. That had my heart for many years.
Interviewer:
When did that change for you?
