"In the case of Careless in Red, I made an initial reconnaissance into Cornwall as part of a Christmas trip with my husband. We celebrated Christmas near Bristol, then drove down to Cornwall and made a loop. When I’m doing my initial reconnaissance I’m just looking to see if the place is suggestive of story to me. I am always looking for a place that I want to write about, and some places don’t interest me as much as others. So what I’m looking for first is a sense of place. And then, once I’ve established that a place is going to work for me, I generally, while I’m there on the initial trip, collect a lot of reading material. I bring that reading material home, and in reading it I establish for myself a series of particular locations that I want to examine. Then I go back to England a second time and examine all of these locations with an eye for story once again, only now what I’m doing is I’m looking for places where characters will live and operate and where elements of the story will take place."In the case of Careless in Red, I made an initial reconnaissance into Cornwall as part of a Christmas trip with my husband.

 About Elizabeth George

“I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of any thing than of a book! -- When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.”

Jane Austen, Pride and Predjudice

Jane Austen, Pride and Predjudice

“It is what you read when you don't have to that determines what you will be when you can't help it.”

Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde

“Do not read, as children do, to amuse yourself, or like the ambitious, for the purpose of instruction. No, read in order to live.”

Gustave Flaubert

Gustave Flaubert

“A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies, said Jojen. The man who never reads lives only one.”
