Journalism Is A Darwinian Process.

I Always Wanted To Work At Take A Break Magazine, You Know, Just To Inject A Little Bit Of Politics Into Their Stories. I Applied For A Job There After I'd Done My Law Degree And Didn't Even Get An Interview. I Only Wrote Garnethill Because I Didn't Get That Job!

I'd Read So Much Right-wing Crime Fiction Where They Find The Evidence And Shoot The Bad Guy - I Thought There Must Be Another Approach.

There's A Real Emphasis On Being Witty In Scotland, Even In Crime Novels.

I Have Two Children. They Are More Fun Than Anything In The World, And It's More Immediate Fun Than The Hard Slog Of Writing.
