Interview with the author of ‘Hitchhiker’

Over at Mutiny.in, Ujj has an interview with Vinod George Joseph whose novel, Hitchhiker, was published last year (it was also reviewed by Ujj a few days ago):

… [So,] were you the lawyer by the day and the writer by the night…

Vinod: Sort of. I wrote Hitchhiker while I was doing my LLM. When I finished my LLM in September 2003, I had completed my first draft. I took me a few more months to find a job, by which time I had finished editing it. My day job involves long hours and so I don’t manage to write for more than a few hours every week, mainly on week-ends.
