I had my first TV interview while up in Watertown, NY this past weekend. It’s 12 minutes long, and well, I learned a lot about how I might approach it differently next time. Still, I love the questions that Craig Thornton asked me. He made it feel like a real discussion about writing, which made it a lot of fun for me. Here’s the link to the interview. http://www.wwnytv.com/story/35933365/craigs-to-do-list-interview-n-west-moss-author

I wish we hadn’t been in direct sunlight. I was very hot and sweaty and couldn’t wear my glasses because they get dark in the sunlight. I also wish I didn’t look so much like Winston Churchill. 🙂

I wouldn’t have thought Winston Churchill — you look like a writer. Of course, Winston Churchill was a writer, too.

Oh I was drawn right into your interview. And in such a bucolic setting. With each question I found myself wondering what your response would be and I was rewarded each time. I look forward to reading your medical memoir and your play.
