00:36Simon, I am trying to be good, I don't know, I don't know, I'm trying
00:40But, I got a guest on the show as you can see
00:43And his name is Simon Dean
00:44But I want to show you this book cover
00:46I thought this was very, very futuristic
00:48Look at this, The Gift
00:51Yeah, we gotta talk about this
00:53We gotta talk about this, The Gift
00:55Thank you so much for joining us, Simon
00:56For being here so far
00:59And you're, and I'm across the pond
01:01And you're across the pond
01:03So
01:05No, glad to be here
01:07Glad to be here
01:07Thank you, thank you so much
01:09So, I want to get into you
01:11I want to find out what, when, and how did you decide
01:14That you were going to be an author?
01:18I think when I was at school
01:20Like when I was at very school
01:21So, nine, tens
01:24I always sort of enjoyed writing
01:25I'd write stories about random stuff
01:29And I'd always go very much all in kind of thing
01:33So I'd throw everything at it
01:34And I think just through the years
01:36I've just kept on doing it
01:37But obviously with things like work
01:39It kind of takes a bit of the back burner
01:42And then I started to write again
01:44In my probably late forties
01:48And it just got to a point
01:50When I was writing
01:51And it got to about three quarters of the way through
01:54And I actually thought to myself
01:57I'm going to try and finish this now
01:58Because I'd always sort of started
02:00I'd do half a book or something
02:01And then work would take the time up
02:03And it got way late
02:05So I sort of tried to focus so much on it
02:07And that basically is what created the gift, really
02:13So from that
02:14It's taken me about 40 years to write this book
02:19Wow
02:21A lot of people would be, you know
02:23Wow, that's a long time
02:25But I mean, 40 years is really not a long time
02:29Considering that you didn't really consider
02:31To put it out as a book in the first place
02:33No
02:34I mean, I'd been writing for a long time
02:37And you write certain bits of stories
02:39And then you sort of reread them
02:41And you sort of go
02:43That's not good enough
02:44I'll pull it to one side
02:46And it was only when I got
02:47I suppose into my forties
02:49And had the time to be able to do it
02:52That I then realised I could do it
02:55And I think I was at an age as well
02:57That I had a lot more focus
02:59So it allowed me to carry on
03:01Basically finish the book
03:03But even after I'd finished it
03:05I didn't know what to do with it
03:07Because I'd never been in touch with publishers
03:11Or anything like that
03:12So I didn't know what the process was as well
03:14So that in itself was a learning curve for me
03:18It can be a minefield
03:21To sort of get a book published
03:24Yeah
03:25You know
03:26I was lucky that
03:28I sent it off to about
03:30Six or seven publishers
03:33Not really expecting anything
03:34Because obviously I didn't know what the process was
03:36And basically all seven of them came back
03:39And said they wanted to publish it
03:42Which in itself is a problem then
03:44Because then who do you pick?
03:47So I sort of had to weigh up the pros and cons
03:50As to what gave the best publicity
03:54What gave the best sort of value
03:58And being able to do that
03:59So then obviously I went with Woodbridge in the end
04:02But it's a hard decision
04:04You don't expect it to happen
04:06I just expected maybe one or two
04:08And then when they all did it
04:10I kind of went
04:11Oh dear
04:11Now what do I do
04:14But they've been brilliant
04:16So I've made the right choice I think
04:18Yeah
04:19You know
04:19And like you said
04:20It becomes a problem
04:22When you don't have any
04:24And it becomes a bigger problem
04:26When you have too many
04:27Yeah
04:27I mean it's a good problem
04:29But it's still a problem
04:30It's still a problem
04:31It's still a problem
04:32Wow
04:33Wow
04:33So I want to get into you
04:34Like the story focuses heavy on fear
04:37Control
04:39Rather than like a spectacle kind of thing
04:41What was that conscious decision from the start?
04:44Why did you come up with that?
04:46I think as being a teenager myself
04:50As everybody is at some point in their life
04:54I often thought to myself
04:56What it would be like
04:58To have those kind of powers
05:00And how would I approach it
05:02And how would people approach it
05:04Kind of thing
05:05If they knew
05:07I suppose I never really thought about
05:08Government involvement
05:10I suppose at the time
05:11When I was that age
05:13But nowadays
05:14And obviously things you hear
05:15You think yes
05:16Would they get involved
05:18And how would they get involved
05:20So that threw quite a basis
05:22Of my book
05:23Of how the government
05:25And other shadow companies
05:29Actually deal with someone
05:30With that kind of power
05:33You know
05:33Do they help you?
05:36Do they see you as a threat?
05:39So I very much wanted to sort of approach it
05:41From a young adult I suppose
05:45And how he would react
05:47To that kind of a situation
05:49Because I don't know how I would
05:51Yeah
05:52Wow
05:53Wow
05:53You know
05:54It is something to think about
05:57When you write a book
05:58And you put it down on paper
05:59And you have this
06:01This whole
06:02Kind of storyline
06:03Come about
06:04Did the characters become real
06:07To you at any point?
06:09I mean
06:09For me
06:09It's like
06:10I can't help but immerse myself
06:12Into like a Marvel comic movie
06:14And come out thinking
06:15That I am Catwoman
06:16Somewhere in there
06:17Yeah
06:19Yeah I mean
06:20I think this was it
06:22I mean
06:22When I was writing the book
06:24And obviously
06:25The books that I've tried
06:27I've started to write
06:28Since this book
06:29I've always tried to write
06:31As if it is a film
06:32So I sort of
06:34I try and picture the character
06:35As if they were
06:36A character
06:38In a film
06:38Kind of thing
06:39And
06:40I start playing out
06:41Scenes in my head
06:42And then obviously
06:43I then try and have to
06:44Put them onto paper
06:45As well
06:45To make them as descriptive
06:47As I can
06:48So I always try
06:49And get myself
06:50Totally immersed
06:51In the character
06:52Because I like to
06:54See the character
06:55Through my eyes
06:56And how other people
06:57Would see it
06:57If it was on
06:58The movie screen
06:59Or
07:00Right
07:00You know
07:01A streaming channel
07:02Or something like that
07:03And I think
07:04That's the only way
07:05You can really
07:05Be quite descriptive
07:06Is you've got to
07:07Visualise
07:08What your story
07:09Is looking like
07:10Yeah
07:10Yeah
07:11You know
07:12You put a burden
07:14On such a young
07:15Person
07:16In your book
07:17Chris
07:18Why did you do that?
07:20Why
07:20Why did you put
07:22A burden
07:22On someone so young?
07:25I think
07:26Young adults
07:28Teenagers
07:29Don't get enough credit
07:32I mean
07:32I don't know
07:34What it's like
07:34Over there
07:36But we have
07:37A lot of teenagers
07:38That look after
07:38Their parents
07:39Their siblings
07:41And they have
07:42A lot of responsibility
07:43And I don't think
07:44We give them
07:45Enough credit
07:45So I wanted to
07:46Base my character
07:48On that kind
07:49Of an age
07:50So I could show
07:51That they do have
07:52That responsibility
07:54And that maturity
07:56To deal with
07:57This gift
07:58I mean
07:59Obviously
07:59In the book
08:00When he first
08:00Gains the power
08:02He uses it
08:03For
08:05Stupidity
08:06Of course
08:08Yeah
08:08But I think
08:10Everybody would
08:11You know
08:12And it's only really
08:14I think
08:14When he realises
08:15That his powers
08:17Are improving
08:19And getting stronger
08:20And obviously
08:21Then he gets
08:22Obviously the government
08:23And so on
08:24That start taking
08:24An interest
08:25Does he start
08:26To take it
08:26More seriously
08:27I think
08:28But as a teenager
08:30Who wouldn't
08:31You know
08:32You wouldn't
08:32Have the power
08:33And then suddenly
08:33Go oh I need
08:34To do good
08:35With it
08:35You have the power
08:36And go I need
08:37To do stupid
08:38Stuff with it
08:39Yeah
08:40And that's what
08:41I've tried to show
08:42When it's gone
08:42From that kind
08:43Of thing
08:44That we'd all do
08:45Into something
08:46Deeper
08:46And more complex
08:48Basically
08:50What surprised you
08:51When you wrote
08:52This book
08:52About Chris
08:53Like did you
08:53Change anything
08:54Did he change
08:55What surprised you
08:57About his journey
08:58I think
08:59I always wanted
09:00To go in
09:01With him
09:02Getting more
09:03Maturity
09:05But I think
09:07As I wrote
09:08The book
09:08I think
09:09I kind of
09:09Evolved it
09:11More than
09:12I thought
09:12I would
09:13I thought
09:14I would
09:14Keep it
09:15Sort of
09:15A mature
09:17Kind of
09:18Young adult
09:19When actually
09:20By the middle
09:21Towards the end
09:22Of the book
09:22He'd actually
09:22Grown a lot
09:24More
09:25And he'd
09:26Gone more
09:27Into sort
09:28Of a
09:28I suppose
09:29A leader role
09:31Kind of thing
09:32And again
09:33At such a
09:34Short age
09:35I felt
09:36It necessary
09:37To show
09:38That they
09:38Can do that
09:39That he
09:39Can do that
09:40So yeah
09:41He did
09:41Mature
09:42As I
09:42Went along
09:43And I
09:44Didn't want
09:45I probably
09:46Didn't want
09:47Him as
09:47Mature
09:47As I
09:47Thought I
09:48Would
09:48Until I'd
09:49Actually
09:49Started
09:49Sort of
09:50The middle
09:50Of the
09:50Book
09:51Kind of
09:51Thing
09:53Yeah
09:53You know
09:54There is
09:55A question
09:55That I
09:56Wanted to
09:56Ask you
09:57Because it's
09:57Like powers
09:58Because I
09:58Was watching
09:59I'm sorry
10:00Spider-man
10:01Is coming
10:01Up soon
10:02In the
10:02Movie
10:02Theatres
10:03Okay
10:03The new
10:04One
10:04Is it
10:05Here
10:05Yet
10:06Is it
10:06There
10:06With you
10:07It will
10:07Be
10:07End of
10:08July
10:08I think
10:09It is
10:09It comes
10:09Out
10:10I am
10:10So
10:11So excited
10:11I'm
10:12Stoked
10:12I am
10:13Stoked
10:13But there
10:14Was one
10:14Line
10:15In there
10:16That
10:16Always
10:17Kind of
10:18Stayed
10:19With me
10:19It's
10:20With great
10:20Powers
10:21Comes
10:22Great
10:22Responsibility
10:23And I
10:25Just
10:26I take
10:27That and
10:27I'm like
10:28Wow
10:29Did you
10:30Add this
10:31Concept
10:31To your
10:32Book at
10:33All
10:34Yes
10:35I mean
10:36I'm a
10:36Big
10:36Spider-man
10:37Fan
10:37So
10:38You know
10:41And
10:41And again
10:43The thing
10:44With Peter
10:44Parker
10:45He's
10:46The same
10:46Sort of
10:46Thing
10:46He's
10:47Very
10:47Young
10:47When he
10:48Gets
10:49These
10:49Powers
10:49And at
10:51First
10:51He doesn't
10:52Realise
10:52How much
10:53Responsibility
10:54Is and
10:54How much
10:55Power he
10:55Can wield
10:56With these
10:57Powers
10:59So it's
10:59Actually
11:00That's a
11:00Very good
11:01Mantra
11:01To have
11:03And I
11:03Wanted to
11:04Sort of
11:04Try and
11:05Put that
11:05Within my
11:06Character as
11:07Well
11:08That you
11:08May have
11:09That great
11:09Power but
11:10It comes
11:10At a
11:10Price as
11:11Well
11:13And you
11:13Know that
11:13That can
11:14Be your
11:14Family
11:15Distancing
11:16That can
11:16Be your
11:17Friends being
11:18Alienated
11:20And things
11:20Like that
11:21So it
11:22Is a
11:22Good
11:22Mantra
11:22To go
11:23With
11:23So yeah
11:23I did
11:24Really want
11:24To try and
11:25Introduce that
11:25Into my
11:26Character as
11:26Well
11:26And being
11:27A Spider-man
11:27Fan
11:27Helped
11:28Yeah I
11:29Like that
11:29I like
11:30That
11:30And it's
11:30True
11:30Because it
11:31Doesn't have
11:32To be a
11:32Superpower
11:32It could
11:33Be any
11:33Kind of
11:34Role
11:34That you
11:35Have
11:35Oh yeah
11:36Could be a
11:37Managerial
11:37Position
11:38It could
11:38Be a
11:38Boss
11:39It could
11:39Be the
11:39Owner
11:39It could
11:40Be a
11:41Teacher
11:41With great
11:42Responsive
11:43You know
11:43Great
11:44Power
11:45Great
11:46Responsibility
11:46And it's
11:47It's across
11:48The board
11:48But I
11:49Thought that
11:49Was really
11:50Really profound
11:51In the movie
11:51And I
11:52See that
11:52You used
11:53That in
11:53The book
11:53I was
11:54Like yeah
11:54I got
11:55You
11:57Yeah
11:57It's
11:58True
11:58It is
11:59True
11:59That that's
12:00The thing
12:00It is a
12:00Very good
12:01Thing to
12:01Go at
12:03Oh yeah
12:03Across the
12:04Board
12:04Across the
12:05Board
12:05So
12:05You
12:06What do
12:07You want
12:07Readers to
12:08Take away
12:09When they
12:09Do read
12:10This book
12:10Because obviously
12:11This book
12:12Is for
12:13What age
12:14Group do you
12:15Think this
12:15Book is for
12:16Could I
12:16Read it
12:17Yeah
12:18Yeah I mean
12:19I wanted
12:20To base it
12:21Towards young
12:23Adults
12:23Because I
12:25Wanted to
12:25Try and get
12:25The younger
12:26Adult market
12:27Back reading
12:28Again
12:29There's so
12:30Much with
12:31You know
12:31On your
12:32Phones and
12:33So on
12:33And when I
12:35Was young
12:35To read a
12:37Book was
12:37Just so
12:38Engrossing
12:39You know
12:40You turn page
12:40After page
12:41After page
12:42And I
12:43Wanted to
12:43Try and
12:44Aim it
12:44Towards the
12:45Young adult
12:45Market
12:48But
12:49Any age
12:49Can read
12:50It
12:50You know
12:51That I've
12:51Set it in
12:52Such a
12:52Way
12:52That I
12:53Didn't want
12:54A lot
12:54Of
12:56Gore in
12:56It
12:56And a
12:57Lot of
12:58You know
12:58Profanities
12:59And that
13:00Kind of
13:00Thing
13:00So I
13:01Wanted to
13:02Try and
13:02Aim it
13:02At quite
13:03A broad
13:03Spectrum
13:04Of people
13:05But it
13:06Is primarily
13:07Aimed
13:07Towards
13:08Young
13:08Adults
13:10Twenties
13:10Kind of
13:10Thing
13:11But you
13:12Could read
13:12If you're
13:1270 or
13:1380
13:14That's
13:14Fine
13:14I think
13:14You'd
13:15Still enjoy
13:15It
13:16At that
13:17I hear
13:18Yeah
13:18So what
13:20Kind of
13:20Research
13:21Did you
13:21Put into
13:22This
13:22Creating
13:23The
13:23Underground
13:24World
13:24That
13:25Underground
13:25Feel
13:26That
13:26You
13:26Have
13:27In
13:27The
13:27Book
13:28I
13:29Watched
13:29A lot
13:29Of
13:29Documentaries
13:30A lot
13:32Of
13:32Documentaries
13:33And I
13:34Think
13:35Again
13:36From a
13:37Young
13:37Age
13:37I
13:37Read
13:38A lot
13:38Of
13:38Books
13:38On
13:40Nuclear
13:41Bunkers
13:42And
13:42Things
13:43Like
13:43That
13:44And
13:44When
13:45You
13:45Sort
13:46Of
13:46Watch
13:46The
13:46Documentaries
13:47About
13:47These
13:47People
13:47That
13:48Go
13:49After
13:49These
13:49Abandoned
13:50Ones
13:50And
13:51I
13:51Thought
13:51To
13:51Myself
13:52They
13:52Can't
13:52All
13:53Be
13:53Abandoned
13:53That
13:54There's
13:54Got
13:54Some
13:55Out
13:55There
13:55That
13:56Are
13:56Still
13:56Used
13:56For
13:57Something
13:58And
13:58That's
13:59Where
13:59I
14:00Sort of
14:00I
14:00Got
14:00The
14:00Idea
14:01Of
14:01The
14:01Bunker
14:01Which
14:01Obviously
14:02Used
14:02To
14:02Be
14:03A
14:04Nuclear
14:04Bunker
14:04But
14:05But
14:05It
14:06Was
14:06Re
14:08Categorized
14:08Of
14:09How
14:09These
14:10People
14:11With
14:11These
14:11Gifts
14:12Because
14:13I
14:13Just
14:13I
14:14Don't
14:14Believe
14:14That
14:15All
14:15Bunkers
14:15Are
14:15Not
14:16Used
14:16Anymore
14:16Right
14:17That
14:18They've
14:18All
14:18Been
14:19Decommissioned
14:20But
14:20Have
14:20They
14:20All
14:20Been
14:21Recommissioned
14:22Yeah
14:22They're
14:23Out
14:23There
14:24They're
14:24People
14:24Using
14:25Bunkers
14:25Yeah
14:25Oh
14:26Oh
14:27Yeah
14:27Definitely
14:27You know
14:28I have
14:29To
14:29Ask
14:29You
14:30Like
14:30Okay
14:30So
14:31How
14:32Did
14:32You
14:32Maintain
14:32That
14:32Tension
14:33Without
14:33Relying
14:34On
14:34A
14:34Constant
14:35Action
14:35Scene
14:36Like
14:36Because
14:37Tension
14:38And
14:38Action
14:39Are
14:39Like
14:39Right
14:40There
14:40But
14:40How
14:40Did
14:41You
14:41Manage
14:41To
14:42Keep
14:42That
14:42Tension
14:43Even
14:44Though
14:44There
14:44Was
14:44No
14:44Action
14:45Going
14:45On

14:47Think
14:48You
14:48Just
14:48Have
14:48To
14:48Keep
14:48The
14:49Flow
14:49Going
14:49So
14:50I
14:50Didn't
14:50Want
14:52All
14:52Action
14:53Because
14:54I
14:54Thought
14:54It
14:55Would
14:55Take
14:55Away
14:55From
14:56A lot
14:56Of

14:56Like

14:57Human
14:57Side
14:57Of

15:03His
15:03Girlfriend
15:03His
15:04Friends
15:05And
15:06I
15:06Think
15:07You
15:08Have
15:08To
15:08Try
15:08And
15:08Build
15:09That
15:09Up
15:09That

15:10Action
15:11But
15:12You
15:12Have
15:12To
15:12Try
15:12And
15:12Give
15:13A

15:13Element
15:14To
15:14It
15:14As
15:14Well
15:15You
15:15Can't

15:24I
15:24Want

15:25Feel
15:26Sorry
15:26For
15:27Him
15:27And
15:27Feel
15:28Happy
15:28For
15:29Him
15:29So

15:30Want
15:30To
15:30Try
15:31And
15:31Build
15:31Up
15:31The
15:31Gaps
15:31In
15:32Between

16:05Even
16:05Politics
16:06I
16:06Don't
16:06Know
16:06Because
16:07I
16:07Haven't
16:07Read
16:07It
16:07Yet
16:08I
16:08Just
16:08Going
16:08By
16:08My
16:09Questions
16:09Here
16:10That
16:10I
16:10Have
16:19I
16:19Think
16:19The
16:19Politics
16:20Was
16:20The
16:20Worst
16:20Bit
16:21Because
16:21I
16:21Not
16:21Into

16:23You
16:24Know
16:24You
16:25Asked
16:25Me
16:25Stuff
16:25About
16:26And
16:26I
16:26Wouldn't
16:27Have
16:27A
16:27Clue
16:27So
16:28I
16:28Had
16:28To
16:28Do
16:29A
16:29Bit
16:29Of
16:29Research
16:30Into
16:32Governments
16:32And
16:33What
16:34They
16:34Would
16:34Do
16:35If
16:35This
16:36Kind
16:36Of
16:36Thing
16:36Happened
16:37But
16:38I
16:38Think
16:38The
16:38Main
16:38Problem
16:39I
16:39Had
16:39Because
16:39The
16:40Book
16:40Took
16:41Such
16:41A
16:42Long
16:42Time
16:42To
16:42Do
16:43It
16:44Was
16:44Keeping
16:46My
16:46Memory
16:47Going
16:49And
16:49How
16:49I
16:49Developed
16:50Them
16:50So
16:50Far
16:51And
16:51Then
16:52Trying
16:52To
16:52Remember
16:53Well
16:53Hold
16:53On
16:53A
16:54Minute
16:55I
16:55Have
16:56Already
16:56Had
16:56This
16:56Big
16:56Kind
16:57Of
16:57Thing
16:57I
16:57Don't
16:58Want
16:58To
16:58Sort
16:58Of
16:59Redo
16:59Everything
16:59So
17:00I
17:00Had
17:00To
17:00Then
17:00Go
17:00Back
17:00And
17:01Reread
17:02To
17:02Make
17:03Sure

17:04And
17:05Things
17:05Like
17:05That
17:06So
17:06I
17:07Think
17:08Any
17:08Writers
17:09Out
17:09There
17:09That
17:10Take
17:11A

17:12A
17:19Learned
17:19A
17:19Lot
17:20Now
17:20Than
17:21I
17:21Didn't
17:21Know
17:21When
17:21I
17:21First
17:22Started
17:23And
17:23That's
17:23That's
17:24One
17:24Of
17:24The
17:24Bits
17:24Of
17:24Advice

17:26A
17:26Book
17:26Keep
17:26Plenty
17:27Of
17:27Notes
17:28Because
17:28You
17:29Can
17:29Get
17:30Carried
17:30Away
17:30Writing
17:31It
17:31And
17:32Once
17:32You've
17:33Re-read
17:33It
17:33You've
17:33Gone

17:38You've
17:38Got
17:38So
17:38Involved
17:39In
17:39It
17:39That
17:39Sometimes
17:39You
17:40Have
17:40To
17:40Step
17:41Back
17:41Look
17:41At
17:41Your

17:43Where
17:43I'm
17:43Going
17:44Now
17:44With
17:44It
17:45And
17:46Don't
17:46Be
17:47Afraid
17:47To
17:47I
17:48Mean
17:48I've
17:48Got
17:48Rid
17:48Of
17:48Chapters
17:49Before
17:50Because
17:51I
17:51Thought
17:51To
17:51Myself
17:52It
17:52Doesn't
17:52Belong
17:53In
17:53The
17:53Book
17:53So
17:54I've
17:54Just
17:54Literally
17:55Rewrote
17:55Them
17:55All
17:56Again
17:56Kind
17:56Of
17:56Thing
17:56So
17:57You
17:57Have
17:57To
17:57Be
17:57Very
17:57Patient
17:59And
17:59I
17:59Think
17:59That's
18:00Where
18:00A lot
18:00Of
18:00It
18:00You
18:01Can
18:01Get
18:01Let
18:01Down

18:02You
18:02Lose
18:03Patience
18:03With
18:03Yourself
18:05Wow
18:06I've
18:07Never
18:07Heard
18:07Of
18:07Anyone
18:08Getting
18:09Rewriting
18:09Full
18:09Chapters
18:10But
18:10That
18:10Doesn't
18:11Mean
18:11It
18:11Didn't
18:11Happen
18:12It
18:12Just
18:12Means
18:12That
18:13They
18:13Never
18:13Said
18:13It
18:14But
18:14Being
18:15Truthful
18:18Is
18:19Great
18:19Because
18:20People
18:20Need
18:20To
18:20Know
18:21That
18:21You
18:21Could
18:21Do
18:22That
18:22There
18:22Is
18:22A
18:23Possibility
18:23You
18:23Know
18:27How
18:27Did
18:28You
18:28Approach
18:29The
18:29Pacing
18:30And
18:30The
18:30Fast
18:31Moving
18:31Missions
18:32With
18:32The
18:32Quieter
18:34Introspective
18:34Scenes
18:36I
18:37Read
18:37A lot
18:37Of
18:37Horror
18:37Books
18:38And
18:38Sci-fi
18:39Books
