Mary Queen of Scots was my first love, and that is always something special.
I can't read historical fiction because I find the real thing so much more interesting.
Normally I make myself swim, do exercises. For zest I like going to the cinema.
I'm glad I was never an heiress.
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.
People in my books tend to get their just deserts, even if not at the hands of the police.
