Cathy Cash Spellman
Pretty much everything! I never wanted to do anything but write books. It still seems to me the greatest privilege. I relish the research that lets me immerse myself in other times, psyches, worlds... I feel the writing is almost trancelike...a deep dive immersion into the souls of my characters. I feeI I live their stories with them. If they cry, I cry. If they love, I love.

Dear Cathy, I loved Lark's Labyrinth and I loved the complexity of the plot and the thrilling romp through history...so my question is a technical one: How ever do you keep all the things that are happening to your characters through time and place straight, without going bonkers?

Cathy, I learn so much from reading your books, in all genres. Throughout your stories you intersperse all kinds of fascinating and interesting tidbits and pieces of information that I normally would not know anything about. How much research goes into one of your typical novels?
