I don't like putting things into descriptions, but I suppose you have to. There's also always something mysterious going on in your novels . There's always a crime and it always gets solved. You start at the end, and then go back and write and go that way. Not everyone does, but I do.
Some people just sit down at the page and start off.
I start from what happened, including the why. And I don't like, 'He was mad' as an answer. Unless he's been driven mad by something we can understand. You're a very strong writer. I think anything you wrote would be interesting .
