It’s really informed me about the way to approach fiction. I wish I was a journalist reading this and the comment by Tracey!!

I’ve read the who, what, where…. before but this puts in a really clear context.

I have found that having interviewed everyone from politicians to musicians to doctors to homeless people really informs my fictional characters. Also I find that journalism teaches you there is no such luxury as writers block.
