Q: Describe yourself in five words?

Bookworm: Let me see... Contents, Beginning, Middle, End, Index.

Q: What's your favourite colour?

Bookworm: Ak'helkth.  It's a lovely Ethklinian word for the iridescence you see on the surface of a soap bubble.

Q: Favourite number?

Bookworm: 1000.  It's a neat, solid number.

Q: What do you miss most from your life before Fort Paradox?

Bookworm: There is nothing to miss.  Every book is a world in itself, so my worlds are always with me.

Q: What do you enjoy most about life on board Fort Paradox?

Bookworm: The peace and quiet.  Although having said that, there was an extraordinary fellow with a mop running round the library screaming and yelling the other day.

Q: What would your perfect day be like?

Bookworm: Plenty of undisturbed reading time, a nice bracing walk in the country, lots of strong tea and perhaps an erudite chat with some friends.

Q: Where would you most like to visit?

Bookworm: Frankly, I'm always interested in going somewhere new - provided I've had had a chance to do some background reading about the place first.

Q: And finally: tell us something about yourself that's a bit different.

Bookworm: Profiteroles.  I have a terrible weakness for them.
