Val McDermid Midnight Meets With Colin Murray

    • Diarios personales

“A book is the most interactive form of entertainment there is”.

Crime writer Val McDermid chats to Colin Murray about keeping her characters authentic, time management techniques, TV adaptations, imposter syndrome, using Scottish colloquialisms in her writing (her American publishers asked for a glossary!), judging the Booker Prize, and advice for budding writers.

Oh, and getting a kiss from Blondie’s Debbie Harry!
