As the winner of The Paris Review’s 2009 George Plimpton Prize for Fiction for his short stories, we can all be grateful that Sleeper’s Wake author Alistair Morgan
chose to become a writer when facing a crossroads in his career. But – what would he have done otherwise? Find out:

But both involve staring into the distance for hours at a time, picking people up at one point and dropping them off at another, and piloting something that could nosedive into the Earth at any second.
