Sophie Hannah quotes about
books mysterious wrote
Agatha Christie never wrote books that just started with a dead body, and a 'Let's find out who the murderer is', which is kind of mysterious but not that mysterious. She always started with, 'How can this thing be happening; isn't it strange?'
few people
There are very few well-adjusted people in my books. But I do think that's normal. Because everyone does have their issues and hang-ups.
abnormal characters few life
My characters all have issues, but I don't see that as weird or abnormal because I think in real life there are very few bland, normal people.
