Sandra Brown

I came to write after several mini careers. I did live theatre, managed a cosmetics store and was a local television personality.

I love being the bad guy, simply because I was always so responsible, so predictable growing up.

I think of my books now as suspense novels, usually with a love story incorporated. They're absolutely a lot harder to write than romances. They take more plotting and real character development.

It's hard to imagine anyone interested in film not being a fan of Alfred Hitchcock because he's such a key influence on the entire history of cinema - it's hard to escape his shadow.

I am thrilled to get the chance to write comics - and to tell Forgotten Realms tales, to boot!

After all, we are not French and never can be, and any attempt to be so is to deny our inheritance and to try to impose upon ourselves a character that can be nothing but a veneer upon the surface.
