Lee Child
"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."

Emotional

Lee Child

Quote_1.png
Lee Child

Quote_1.png
Lee Child

Time

Lee Child

Lee Child

Writing

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

Nostalgia

Quote_1.png
Lee Child
"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."
