Confessions With Bingo Elkins



I'm impatient for NaNoWriMo to start, so I've included a preview of some of the characters who will be featured in the novel I'll be writing next month: Ghosty: An Inappropriate Tale for Young Girls. (I may tinker with the title.)

The questions are taken from an English-language confession album which was later answered and made famous by French author Marcel Proust. Vanity Fair adopted and adapted the "Proust Questionnaire."

The first interview is with the novel's protagonist.



What you appreciate the most in your friends: Loyalty, old egg! It's a rummy shame when a chum lets you down, what?

How you wish to die: As I've been toddling along in the afterlife for nearly eighty years now, this question gives me the pip somewhat.

Your favorite occupation: Well, I can tell you it's not running my corporation and what not! I have coves that can do that for me. If I had my rathers, I'd be biffing the old tennis ball or having a round of golf. Alas, noncorporeal hands make that dashed difficult, so I have to seek other adventures.
