Making Connections

In my book, it is very easy to make connections to other works of literature, namely, other books in the Hitchhiker's Series. Arthur Dent makes several references to the earth blowing up, something that happened in the first book in the series. He also references characters from the other books. I do hope those characters make an appearance. I can also connect to real world places. A main character is named after a real train station in england. There is also a part in the book where he is trying to talk to this girl but he keeps being interrupted by a lady that wants him to buy a lottery ticket. I have been in situations before where I am trying to talk to someone but we are interrupted by an outside event.
