Writers rush in where publishers fear to tread and where translators fear to tread

I was an avid radio fan when I was a boy, as well as a great lover of comic strips

I left my country because I was forced to, and I do not think that I am going to lose my language because I live in England

I do not believe in inspiration, but I must have a title in order to work, otherwise I am lost

I wrote for a weekly magazine and then edited a literary magazine, but I did not really feel comfortable with the profession of journalism itself

I am the only British writer who writes in Spanish

I describe my works as books, but my publishers in Spain, in the United States, and elsewhere insist on calling them novels
