Pat Barker Zitate

When writing about historical characters I try to be as accurate as possible, and in particular not to misrepresent the view they held. With a real historical figure you have to be fair, and this is not an obligation you have in dealing with your own creations, so it is quite different.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Beim Schreiben über historische Persönlichkeiten versuche ich, so genau wie möglich zu sein und insbesondere die Ansicht, die sie vertreten, nicht falsch darzustellen. Bei einer echten historischen Figur müssen Sie fair sein, und dies ist keine Verpflichtung, die Sie mit Ihren eigenen Kreationen anstellen, daher ist es ganz anders.

In Rome, I particularly love the history, churches, sculptures and architecture and the fact that you can walk along a tiny cobbled street and turn the corner to find the Trevi Fountain. London is evocative of other eras and full of history.

The fun thing about writing a book with multiple paths and multiple endings is you really get to explore the characters and figure out their different fates.

Social lets consumers talk about the products. You may pay your way onto the Facebook feed, but after that, it's conversations by the users. That's not sufficient because it leaves out what is possible for employees to talk, for R&D to talk, or the CEO to talk.

The hardest part of writing is the first draft, and the closer you get to your deadline, the messier your workspace becomes - but that's the same with any creative outlet.

Tess Gerritsen

No, there isn't a particular type of genre that I'm drawn to. I'm more drawn to the possibility of creating different characters, or being able to go from one genre to the other and to show that I could do it, that I could be good at it.
