giles ruffer, writer, lets plain wrap get to know him better. this is the thirty-fifth installment of plain wrap’s interview series in which plain wrap interviews all its facebook friends. thank you giles ruffer.
1. Tell us about yourself?
1. I’m a 25 year old person from Brighton, which is a city on the south coast of England. I lived in Leeds at one point in my life, which is a city in the north of England. In 2009 I had a short story published by 3:AM Magazine. Since then, my output has been meagre and abysmal. I’m working on a novella that I’ll probably never finish editing.
2. Have you read any good books lately?
2. I read ‘Leaving the Atocha Station’ by Ben Lerner recently which I really enjoyed. You should all go buy a copy. I also read ‘The End of the Story’ by Lydia Davis, which took me a while to finish despite it being about 220 pages. I prefer her shorter work.
3. Why did you leave your last job?
3. I left my last job because I got offered a place on a degree course where they would pay me the same wage as my last job.
4. What have you done to improve your knowledge in the last year?
4. Read, written, and sometimes neither.
5. Tell us about the most fun you have had in life?
5. A band I used to be in went on a short tour of England and Scotland once.
