I'm a very big fan of Paul Harding's other books Tinkers is one of my favorite novels of all time and so I was just really fascinated about what his writing process is when Tinkers came out.
The best things said about it
I interviewed Paul Harding who won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction for his very first novel called Tinkers.
You may know Paul Harden cuz in 20 he won the Pitzer prize for fiction for his book Tinkers and he kind of came out of nowhere actually that was his debut novel.
Let's say like the opening of um of my first novel Tinkers.
