Mysteries I read for fun, so I will probably never write one, for fear of spoiling the fun.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I just have mysteries in all my books, I think, whether it's a boy investigating or a girl. I have an enduring fascination with mysteries of all kinds.
I love mysteries, and I read them every night before I go to bed.
I've included these little jokes and mysteries in my writing for the amusement of readers.
What I do is write, and I try to write as closely as I can into what I call 'the mystery.'
Trying to solve the mystery is what I enjoy most about writing.
I want the reader to know what's going on. So there's never a mystery in my books.
I spent the first twenty years of my writing career preparing for the mystery genre, which is my favorite literary form.
I would love to write a mystery - a romantic, funny mystery.
Part of my motivation for writing mysteries for young people is that I loved mysteries when I was growing up, and now that I'm on the creative end of things, I'm discovering that they're even more fun to write!
To write a good mystery you have to know where it will end before you can decide where it will begin... and I've always known where it will end.
