Why two Canadian crime writers started their own small-scale literary festival.

During a recent interview, Dawson, author of Death In The Air, shared some of her creative secrets with me. We spoke about where she does her thinking (in the car, on a spin bike, and in the bath), her aesthetic (spooky, creepy, and mysterious), her meticulous use of Dropbox (she told her agent that if she died the book could be finished from her Dropbox files) and her week-long archive-digging trip in London, among other things.

So here’s the idea: interview as many writers as possible and write up articles and Q&A’s about how they write, where they find inspiration, and what advice they would give to a young aspiring writer.
