Charlie Bone et le mystère de minuit

Dalila et les sortilèges

Chaque livre que vous prenez vous éloigne de votre monde réel, mais si vous lisez un livre sur la magie, cela vous fait deux étapes supplémentaires.

C'était une sensation exceptionnelle, la lecture de Spiderlight.

J'ai lu la magie, et je pense que cela vous libère, et cela vous donne de l'espoir. Vous pouvez explorer les mondes que vous ne connaissiez pas existants. Cela étire votre imagination, et j'aime que ma propre imagination soit étirée et aussi les enfants à qui je raconte l'histoire. Cela vous donne un sentiment d'émerveillement.

Mon père est mort quand j'étais assez petit, donc mon oncle m'achète des livres et me les lisait.

J'essaie de ne s'identifier trop à aucun de mes personnages. J'aime prendre du recul et les voir objectivement. Je pense que c'est pourquoi j'utilise souvent des garçons au lieu des filles, juste au cas où je m'approcherais trop près et que je perds la photo globale.

Vous laissez leur amitié se poursuivre parce que Maisie s'occupe de votre fils pendant que vous faites galoper à travers le pays déguisé en Sherlock Holmes "- Oncle Paton Yewbeam

J'avais écrit deux ou trois livres avant que mon mari ne remarque que dans chacun d'eux, un membre de la famille était porté disparu. Il a suggéré que c'était parce que la mort de mon père, quand j'avais cinq ans, a complètement changé mon monde. Je peux seulement supposer qu'il a raison et que c'est la raison pour laquelle je suis attiré par un récit où la vie de quelqu'un est modifiée par la perte.

L'inspiration vient du monde qui m'entoure. Je suis une écoute invétérée.

Il n'y a rien de tel que la paix de la campagne, le calme et le manque de distraction. Cela vous aide à concentrer votre esprit.

Je travaille dans une pièce surplombant la rivière. J'essaie d'arriver à mon bureau dès que j'ai nourri mes chats et mes poulets. J'utilise un crayon 3B bleu et je griffonne sur environ 20 pages avant de le transférer à l'ordinateur.

Attendre et espérer est difficile à faire lorsque vous attendiez déjà et espérez presque aussi longtemps que vous pouvez le supporter.
