Um, bababa... what was I going to say? Oh yes.

[livejournal.com profile] rochefort brings to my attention this interview with Susan Cooper, which I don't think I've read before. Or if I have my brain has long since erased it to make room for random facts about boring things. It looks very interesting, although I haven't read it all yet.

Why is Yahoo so crap?

Eh... can't think of anything to say really. I'll stop bothering you now.

you are so handy.

just when i'm dreaming about DIR, and i've never read any interviews with her!

i love her description of writing with the background images, archetypes and narratives somewhere in the back of her mind, but keeping it all slightly out of focus. that's how i want to write.

oh god, how i love those books. thank you!

Wasn't it a fab interview? I can't believe I've never come across it before.

Yes, yes, I thought that was wonderful. And that's definitely how the books come across to me, too, like there's all these depths and layers of stuff that you can slip into accidentally. I love that.

And I love that she mentions Alan Garner and TH White!
