Tuned into Radio 4 this morning and heard someone interviewing Juliane Diller/Koepcke, who has an incredibly hypnotic voice.

JD/K: When the plane exploded I fell two miles straight down, but the strong updraughts from the rainforest helped to save me. I feel a special connection to that environment...
Radio: *HARRUMPH*
Cheryl: *Jumps out of skin*
J D/K: At first I didn’t realise I was the only one alive. I assumed there must be more survivors. It took me a long time to realise my mother must be dead...
Radio: *HARRUMPH* *HARRUMPH*
Cheryl: Oh, there are two men with sinus problems in the studio. How odd.
J D/K: I had years of counselling, but until I went back to the crash site 27 years later I had never truly come to terms with everything that happened...
Radio: *HARRUMPH* *HARRUMPH* *HARRUMPH*

Turned out there were two other authors there with books to promote, and they felt Juliane’s section was taking too long. They’d decided to let the presenter know.

writing, wtf, books
