![]() The second time I went there to actually trek that route myself I wanted to have a total sensory experience of everything about the journey, from terrain to landmarks to weather to scents, textures, tastes and sounds. On one trip I mapped a course for Lady Justice and Peregrine’s flight through the Scottish countryside from the angry mob chasing them. While researching and writing the Falcon Club series I visited Scotland several times, including twice for The Earl. Writing The Earl was a white-water-rapids ride like that.įirst of all, it’s a road trip story, and I adore writing road trip stories set in places I’ve fallen in love with. When I’m writing a novel like this I write every moment I can, and I stay up all night… and then all day… and then all night… and then… Despite other tasks I must attend to (like walking the pup, sending my son to school, teaching class), sometimes I’m so deeply swept away in the rushing, raging, riotous flow of the love story that I simply cannot drag myself away until I’m literally falling asleep over the keyboard. ![]() ![]() This means that sometimes I stay up all night writing. I write novels the way I read novels: total immersion. ![]()
