Who is your favourite writer/author and why?
"Iain Banks. I started
reading Iain Banks with The Wasp Factory in 1984 and I have pretty much
followed Iain Banks right through. I do not do his science fiction when he
writes as Iain M. banks as sci-fi does not really rock my boat. However, all of his novels do and I
just became so involved with him as a writer… I also got to meet him as well at
Waterstones Booksellers in the UK. I asked him a question regarding colour as I
was writing an essay at Art College at the time on Walking on Glass. My Iain Banks books are signed with
references to colour. He was a modest and giving person.
He is dying now; he
has pancreatic cancer…very sad."
Since my day
with Jude, Iain Banks passed away on the 9th of June 2013 he was 59.
Do you have words of wisdom that you would like to
share?
"Be Kind…"
To follow...
My thank you message to Jude
