Horror's Greatest Hits

Janice asked M.C. Beaton:

Ms. Beaton, Why do you usually kill off the evil protagonists in the Agatha Raisin series? Do you feel sorry for them for having to pay for their crimes and therefore "mercy kill" them or do you want the evil doers to pay the ultimate price for their crimes?

M.C. Beaton I enjoy killing off people I don't like. That’s why detective writers are such cosy people. They have no resentments left.

Katherine Joyce asked M.C. Beaton:

I love the Agatha series, and I am a HUGE fan of the Hamish ones! Death of a Gossip was the first cozy mystery I ever read and it kept me hungry for more. How do you keep all the characters straight in your books? Do you keep notes on them all or is it just second nature for you to remember all of it?

linda asked M.C. Beaton:

Did you write Death of a Scriptwriter in response to the televised series Hamish? Although I enjoyed the series, Hamish was unrecognizable and I thought they took great liberties with your characters..
