Julia Golding is the international war zones. Here's what Julia has to say about fact, fiction, and that darn Cat.
Sindy: Can you give a brief of the Cat Royal series for those who don't know what it's all about?
Julia Golding: Picture yourself in Paris to see the revolution for herself.
Sindy: Your books are sometimes released just a few months apart - how do you keep up such a high production level?
Julia Golding: It doesn't feel that way to me! I tell my stories to my family and their appetite sets the pace.
Sindy: Do you plan a series before you start writing it or do you let it evolve as you write?
Julia Golding: A series usually starts as a single book. This was the case with Cat Royal. I only started on a second after positive response from my audience and then the idea of making it into cats have nine lives, don't they...?
Sindy: You have three kids. Do they have any influence on your work?
Julia Golding: They are where it all starts. I write the books I think they want to hear. My daughter's current favorite is Ringmaster, a contemporary spy thriller start writing for him soon too.
Sindy: What books did you like growing up?
Julia Golding: I read voraciously. Susan Cooper, s Hodgson Burnett, Indian exoticism and the power of the imagination thrown in.
