JAL's interview excerpt.

Post by Nightrider » Sun Jan 15, 2012 12:53 am

This is where I first heard about JAL's new book.(May 23 2011) Here's the excerpt...
"SFX: Do you find yourself developing and changing as a writer? Are you finding yourself drawn to different types of storytelling, different images?
Developing in a different direction. I think for better or for worse I tend to think in a more epic scale generally. The next book I’m writing, which will be called X – like X on a treasure seeker’s map – if my publishers allow it, will be a huge thing, going through what really is our place here on Earth. There’s going to be monsters – yes, there will be blood, and the feeling that I had when I was reading these really cheap horror stories when I was like 13/14/15 when I got bored with the classics, the things I know now are really bad were the ones that I enjoyed the most! So I try to retain that pulp feeling but within a more epic context. I think that Let The Right One In is my best story but Harbour is my best book and so I’m going more in the direction of Harbour generally.”
