Um But I think all writers tend to have that typical uh yearning to like be creative in a way that makes sense of like their past that sometimes is odd and sort of different . But uh yeah , this new book is one that I wrote , you know , kind of after feeling like I think the world needed a little bit of hope and inspiration and positivity because , uh , we all know there's plenty of bad things that happen out there . And , um , unfortunately , I think sometimes we get accustomed to that bad stuff being broadcasted to us , like , on a regular basis , um , that we forget about , like , the small little good things that happen every day and those aren't really as shared .
Um Again , you're a speaker , a philanthropist . Um This is your second book . Um This is a young adult novel .
Yeah . You wrote two books in four years . Yes .
You're also a philanthropist . This is also your second book . You're How Old Again as of yesterday .
Where did you find the freedom to really progress into just pure fiction ? Um , my second book is gonna be even better , like , yeah , so I think that was more difficult than , uh I might make it sound right now . Uh I think I kind of fell in love with my first project and was busy on like the press tour for that for a long time and , and loved every bit of that , but it was actually my dad who hopefully is tuning in right now .
