Diana Gabaldon:
Did you have any previous writing experience before you wrote Outlander?
Diana Gabaldon
Certainly. I'd been a professional non-fiction writer (as in, people paid me to do it ) for several years before I decided to write a novel for practice.

Diana Gabaldon:
I love the Lord John novels and novellas. It was interesting to me how you wrote his character while he was recovering from his battle injury--he was not himself, yet still clearly the same character. You did that so well. My question is, (spoiler) why did Percy betray him? It just seemed like such a stupid thing to do! Was he just stupid?
