Betrayal is a cliché … Lies are so suburban. But murder is nice and clean.

Carole Morin

Characters in novels are all fiction like the world they live in. Of course Vivien Lash has things in common with me but if she actually was me I wouldn't have been able to invent her. And I'm not plotting to murder my husband!
The closest connection between me and my characters is that we live in a city that's recognisable as London, but it's a version of London that came out of my head.

Carole Morin

Murder and sex are both Dionysian.
Creative work is first anarchic; and then it's structured. It's right brain then left brain. Anarchic then controlled. To be a really good writer, you have to be able to do both. It's hard work and it takes longer than murder or sex.
