A new career

Eighty-five might seem a little old to start a new career as a writer but Thomas Bailey is doing just that. His first book, a historical romance, has just been published and he is now writing his second! Our reporter, Danny Street, asked him about his new life.

Danny Are you enjoying this new career, Thomas?

Thomas I'm having a wonderful time! All my life I've loved books and reading but I never thought that I could write a book that other people might want to read. It's a fantastic feeling!

Danny Where do you get your ideas?

Thomas Well, I write about what life was like when I was young. My family was poor and we lived in London. Life was very different in those days.

Danny And do you write every day?

Thomas Oh yes. I write for three hours every morning on my computer. It took me a while to learn how to use the thing but it's much better than writing it all by hand!

Danny And how does your wife feel about it all?

Thomas She doesn't like me staying in my study all the time. She wants me to be in the garden or doing jobs round the house!

Danny She must be very proud of you! Do you show her the chapters when they're finished?

Thomas Sometimes. You see, I write about some of my old girlfriends and she doesn't like that. She's a bit jealous!

Danny I'm sure she needn't worry! Good luck with the next book.
