The Older I Get, The More Fun

I'm Absolutely Delighted If People Think Of Me As A Reliable Purveyor Of Quality Period Stuff.

I Suppose I Have The Tastes Of Someone Who Teaches At A University In The Provinces.

I Always Do Like To Write Love Stories, Even If They End Tragically.

I Got Quite Cross When I Heard About Emma Thompson Adapting 'sense And Sensibility.' It Was Absolutely Childish Of Me, But I Thought, 'i Should Be Doing That. They Didn't Even Ask Me.' Some Mistake, Surely.

I Remain, However, Fairly Optimistic For The Future Of Period Drama Because It's Just Such A Popular Thing.
