![]() ![]() How do you come up with ideas for your books? It took six months, all in all, to complete, and they were six months of pure imagination. ![]() ![]() I wrote it in my spare time while I worked on the family farm. I wrote it without a publishing deal, without knowing if anyone would read it or like it. Impossible to say! All I can say is that I usually have at least three books on the go at any one time. But I was lucky, because my talent led to this. I figured out at an early age that I had something my friends didn't - I had a talent they lacked, in the same way that they had talents that I lacked. Even if I didn't have a publishing deal I'd still be writing in my spare time, because it is something I love above all else. The best thing is simply that I get to do something as a job, as a career, that I would be doing anyway as a hobby. What is the best thing about being an author? How does Derek Landy feel when he gets a bad review? Does he have nice handwriting? The Imagine festival children's panel couldn't wait to ask the awesome Skulduggery creator all about being an author! ![]()
