My mother was a politician in my formative years.
I am re-reading Henry James as a change from history. I began with Daisy Miller, and I've just finished Washington Square. What a brilliant, painful book.
Ninety-seven is my lucky number.
Normally I make myself swim, do exercises. For zest I like going to the cinema.
People in my books tend to get their just deserts, even if not at the hands of the police.
I have no plans for a future Jemima Shore mystery, but would write one tomorrow if a good idea came to me.
I think there has been a great deal of valuable revisionism in women's history.
