I have just finished a parallel Victorian novel... about a duel between the powers of Bast and Anubis, or between man and woman-or between hate and love, pain and comfort, power and kindness.

People are always the start for me... animals, when I can get into their heads, gods, supernatural beings, immortals, the dead... these are all people to me.

I also love Disney, and will defend doing so, because there's so much in those films and I don't care if it's stereotyped.

I don't write backwards, I've never been able to do that!

I haven't deteriorated or gone insane. Suddenly, I just can't get anything into print. And apparently I'm not alone in this. There are people of very high standing, authors who are having problems. So I have been told.

I've been criticised for writing in too complex a manner for younger people.

I like films, or some films, and would be intrigued to see my work on screen.

Later influences include Rebecca West, Rosamond Lehmann and Elizabeth Bowen, but there are so many others.

No one is ever ordinary.

Writers tell stories better, because they've had more practice, but everyone has a book in them. Yes, that old cliche.

Genre categories are irrelevant. I dislike them, but I do not have the casting vote.

I came up with a parallel Venice called Venus. set in a parallel Venice about 1701.

I do need space aside from projects that fit in with what I am known for... to work on more contemporary novels.

How dare one presume to write in a particular way, for children? They deserve the best of a writer, just as the writer deserves the best of themselves. The only limits are sex, for reasons of censorship, and violence, for reasons of common sense.

I would love to be the storyteller of the tribe!

I just love doing everything.

I've also written a big fantasy, very much the sort of thing I used to write, set in kind of a Greek world, though with a lot of differences.

I never know where I am going, though. That is part of what makes it so wonderful. And after all, who does?

I was very interested by the eastern idea of death as a woman... the type of eastern literature where death was personified as a woman; women were considered dangerous and untamed and pariah material, and that was why death was in female form.

We used to go to the cinema once or twice a week, and they used to preview X-certificate films-those which children couldn't see-and I was terrified, and used to have nightmares just from the previews.
