#Person1#: Good morning. I'm from the New York book review. Could I ask you some questions about your latest book? 
#Person2#: Sure. Take a seat... what would you like to know? 
#Person1#: First, I've heard that your latest book is based on a true story. 
#Person2#: That's correct. It's a murder mystery based on actual murders that book place in Florida several years ago. The main character-the police invesigator-is based on the man who investigated the case. 
#Person1#: How do you research your books? 
#Person2#: I always visit the places that I use as setting for stories. Readers like things to be as factually correct as possible-even in fiction! I usually base my characters on people I have met. Most character are a mixture of the characters of two or more people. 
#Person1#: I really like your books. I've just finished this one. I read it from cover to cover in a single day. Congratulation on making the bestseller list yet again! 
#Person2#: Thank you. Let met sign it for you ... there you go. 
#Person1#: Oh! Thank you very much. I heard that you are currently writing a collection of short stories. What are the stories about? 
#Person2#: There's a real mix of stories in the book. I haven't finished all of them yet, though. Many of them are short detective stories, but there are also horror stories and sci-fi ones. If you give me your business card, I'll make sure you get an advance copy to review. 
#Person1#: Thanks very much. I'm sure it will sell well. I can't wait to read it. Here's my card. Thank you for you time.
