"I was fired from my television job, simple as that. Well, downsized, really, a classic 1990s situation."

Job

"I write in the afternoon, from about 12 until 6 or 7. I use an upstairs room as my office. Once I get going I keep at it, and it usually takes about six months from the first blank screen until 'The End.'"

Writing

"I think my books come out very visual, which is an obvious consequence."

Books

"I had a brief theater background and loved the backstage world there's more backstage work in television, so I saw a job advertised and applied, and got it. That was back in 1977, when getting jobs was easy."

Work

Quality

"What do I miss about the UK? Sadly, almost nothing. Maybe the midnight sun, in June in the north. That's all."

Nostalgia

"I felt alienated by the experience and decided to stay away from corporate employment."

Experience

"I have the 'thing' worked out - the trick or the surprise or the pivotal fact. Then I just start somewhere and let the story work itself out."

Work

"I had been coming to America very frequently for many, many years, so I had plenty of exposure - and maybe the best kind of exposure, because I think first impressions are very important. Maybe I notice stuff that is just subliminal to people who live here all the time."

Time

"So, how to stay inside the world of entertainment without actually getting another job? I felt the only logical answer was to become a novelist. So I wrote the first book - driven by some very real feelings of desperation - and it worked."
