Mark Sweet, Catherine Robertson and Cristina Sanders in conversation with Lizzie Russell.
Bestselling authors Mark Sweet (The History Speech), Catherine Robertson (Gabriel’s Bay) and Cristina Sanders (Jerningham) chat about how they create vibrant characters from observing the people and scenes around them.
Their latest novels offer a glimpse into the writer’s magpie life of gathering personalities, places, words and styles and merging them into consistently fascinating, recognisable characters that thrill, induce tears and provoke laughter.
