Hi Robin. Sorry I ask so many questions on here, I just like hearing your answers as you are a very inspirational author. I would like to know how you make a good character? Especially a good dective

Robin Stevens Thank you so much! I think a good character has to feel real - I create mine by thinking about people I know and mixing them up with people from history and other fictional characters. I spend a lot of time thinking about each character and I think it's important to do that!
