Tuni smiled brightly at the man's enthusiasm of her work. At least he wasn't the type to find her boring for her love of research. Most tended to have their eyes glaze over with boredom any time she talked about it. It was certainly refreshing. But his followup question was enough to throw her off some. She hadn't ever really thought of doing her own writing. She could see the potential of it but without actually seeing some things in person she wasn't sure if her writing would be taken all that seriously.

"No, I haven't," she responded with a slight shrug, "I've done plenty of research of my own but without actually seeing things for myself anything I write would already have been written about. Not likely to be the next best seller that way." Not that being a best seller was something she'd strive for. It was all about the learning for her.
