I really do literally put myself into a character's shoes.

To say that Agatha Christie’s characters are cardboard cut-outs is an insult to cardboard cut-outs.

Eunice Parchman killed the Coverdale family because she could not read or write.

I get a lot of letters from people. They say "I want to be a writer. What should I do?" I tell them to stop writing to me and to get on with it.
