How I Got Here


In his younger days my brother Brendan was a professional dancer, and rather a good one I believe. He used to drive around London in a very enviable little sports car and he had a rather nice flat in an emerging part of the capital.

Once, when we were discussing the nature of success, he said to me, ‘When I was young I really wanted to be a dancer, to have my own flat and to drive around in a little MG. Now I’ve got that and I have keep stopping and reminding myself that I am the person I always wanted to be.’

A good point. So today as The Resurrection Fields, the final book in my fantasy trilogy, is published in the US, I am just pausing to remind myself of the same thing

Thanks very much Paul and Keren.

Saw your piece on David Mitchell's Anne Frank joke, Keren. Couldn't agree more.
