I don't know how old you are (and I'm too much of a gentleman to ask) but do you envisage writing about Maisie for many years yet (hoping ardently the answer is yes!) and what age do you think she will be when you run out of things to say about her? Are there any other characters with a story or stories to tell?
Jacqueline Winspear
I have quite a few characters up my sleeve with a story to tell ... so when I decide not to tell Maisie's story any more, there's plenty for me to write about. And I cannot say how old she will be when I decide to end her story - though I don't think it will be because I have run out of things to say about her, but more likely that I want to write other stories.

Not so much a question as a THANK YOU since I am currently reading your next to last ... and just said yesterday that I hoped you were writing another one! I appreciate the history/plotting but most of all the eloquent characterization ... A LESSON IN SECRETS was astonishingly timely, given the rise of fascism now. Are you already thinking about your NEXT episode?

Where did you get the character of Maisie from? Is it yourself or a mixture of a number of people?
