Kate Manning
For a new novel, I'm working on channeling and shaping a voice from the past that's not the same voice from the past that came to me in my last novel. It's a challenge. Luckily, the story's set in a different era, and this is a different character altogether, with a different temperament, vocabulary, and origin, and so the possibilties for a distinctive narrative vernacular are rich, and, as always with a new project, a little scary. But if it weren't a little scary, I wouldn't be interested in keeping at it.
