Were you surrounded by books or did you visit a library?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I grew up in a small village but luckily it did have a library, as did the nearest town. Plus both my parents are English Literature graduates so the house was full of big, intimidating novels. Having said that, I was quite slow to take up reading them. I was very attached to some of the authors I\u2019d read as a child \u2013 Dr Seuss and Janet and Allan Ahlberg in particular \u2013 and thought adult books were boring. I was probably about sixteen when I realised that grown up literature can be just as much fun as <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=100559\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Green Eggs and Ham<\/em><\/a>, which is when I started reading in earnest.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Your work as a software engineer and a mathematical background are not the most obvious starting points for writing bestselling crime fiction. What was your journey to publication?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My undergraduate degree was in Maths and Philosophy, so I\u2019ve always liked a mix of numbers and words. I wrote a few unfinished things while I was at university, then didn\u2019t seriously take it up again until I was in my mid-thirties. Unfortunately, I just didn\u2019t have the time. There\u2019s a lot to learn in the world of software and it changes almost every year. But by thirty-five I\u2019d moved into a more managerial role and was able to return to writing as a hobby.<\/p>\n<p>I wrote my first book, <em>Eight Detectives<\/em>, in odd hours before work and over lunch \u2013 choosing to write a crime novel in the hope that the structure provided by the genre would help me see it through to the end. It took me about a year and a half. Then I sent it to some agents and was very lucky in getting a positive response quite quickly.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is your writing routine?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I always start with pen and paper, either writing notes or full sentences. I do that in an armchair, with a view of the communal gardens surrounding my house, or sometimes in a coffee shop. Then I move to a desk and work on my laptop. I try to keep to the routine of pen and paper in the mornings, laptop in the afternoons, but of course sometimes those plans go awry.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Your debut <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=2872347\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em><strong>Eight Detectives<\/strong><\/em><\/a> was hugely entertaining and ingeniously put together. How did the idea of &#8216;The White Murders&#8217; book at the heart of it come together?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Over the years leading up to writing that book I\u2019d spent a lot of time thinking about unconventional detective stories \u2013 for example, a murder mystery with only two suspects, a detective solving their own murder, and so on. It was just something that interested me. I didn\u2019t plan to do anything with those ideas until I realised, I could write a novel about a book of unconventional detective stories, with the author as one of the characters. The rest of the concept evolved over time, as I worked out how to make a novel out of a series of stories.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Your latest title is <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=3622996\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em><strong>Ink Ribbon Red<\/strong><\/em><\/a> Can you tell us a little about it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To begin with, it presents a familiar situation: six friends spending a weekend together, somewhere remote. But the host wants them to play a parlour game that involves imagining each other&#8217;s murders and writing them down as stories. The game gets personal and leads to arguments, which lead to real murders \u2013 to the point where truth and fiction become hopelessly intertwined.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>You&#8217;re clearly a fan of the Golden Age of crime books and the tropes they use. When you are writing do you have to plan everything in great detail before you can start the story?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I think the more planning I do, the better it works out. But you can only spend so much time planning before you start to worry you might be wasting your time. I don\u2019t think you can really realise things like character, atmosphere, etc, until you\u2019re actually writing them. And those things need to work for the book to be good. What I tend to do now is plan the whole thing quite vaguely, then fill in details for certain sections, then write those sections, then go back to planning.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>What&#8217;s next for you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Book three is well underway. It has something to do with codebreaking, which straddles all my interests. But that\u2019s all I\u2019ll say for now.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>One book everyone must read?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=1887267\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>And Then There Were None<\/em><\/a> is easily the greatest thriller ever written. It\u2019s a flawless piece of plotting and has bucketloads of atmosphere, which is not something you can usually say about an Agatha Christie novel. It\u2019s the most famous crime novelist\u2019s most famous novel \u2013 why would you not want to read it?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The best thing about being a published author is\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I love writing and I love getting to do it with some (certainly not all) of the anxieties removed. It\u2019s a wonderful privilege to be writing a book and to be able to feel fairly confident that it\u2019ll be on book shop shelves with a beautiful cover not too long after it\u2019s finished.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can you tell us one thing about yourself that your readers may not know?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I have an Italian surname but I\u2019m very English. I\u2019m only about four percent Italian. It just happens to be through the male line. When the Italian edition of <em>Eight Detectives<\/em> came out the publisher set up an event for me, assuming I could speak the language \u2013 luckily someone stepped in to translate, or it could have been very embarrassing.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;
