I've got a couple of science fiction ideas that I want to do, both quite harsh - and possibly quite funny. And not like anything I've done so far. But I'm never entirely sure what I'm going to do. It's always a surprise to me.

I've also written a big fantasy, very much the sort of thing I used to write, set in kind of a Greek world, though with a lot of differences.

I don't have specific aims. Only to keep writing. I need more time, as I said, perhaps 25 hours in a day would be helpful.

I just love writing. It's magical, it's somewhere else to go, it's somewhere much more dreadful, somewhere much more exciting. Somewhere I feel I belong, possibly more than in the so-called real world.

America does influence my work, also France, Europe generally, the East and India.

My interest in reincarnation... I explored in a number of works.

The other writer who had a very important early influence on me when I was about 17 was C.S. Lewis.

I have been approached several times by the movie industry, who have sometimes taken out options on my work. So far nothing has come of any of this.

In my 20s some of my work for children was published by Macmillan. However, I was 27 before my adult novel... was taken by DAW Books in the USA. This enabled me finally to stop doing stupid and soul-killing jobs, and start working day and night as a professional writer.

I couldn't believe someone had produced literature that was like an entirely new language, beautiful stuff. Graham Greene, everything. William Golding.

I rather like turning all stories around.

I started a version of my French historical novel... I found it utterly fascinating.

When I am fascinated by something, I like to play with it.

I am interested in most mythology. Celtic or Christian no more than anything else.

Once I could read, I think writing followed very quickly; I was able to put down my words and letters... So there's just over a year between my learning to read and beginning to write.
