Horror's Greatest Hits

Carrie Lallo asked Tana French:

A comment, rather than a question; One of the most powerful devices in your books is auditory description. I have never read an author whose descriptions of the sounds of places are so powerful and haunting. I work hard on visual descriptions when I write, but rarely consider how things sound. I adore your writing. Keep going!

Tana French Thank you very much :-) I'm hoping to keep going for a long, long time, touch wood...

Colleen
Colleen asked Tana French:

I have read all of your books and just finished The Secret Place. I loved it; as an educator pf adolescents and young adults, I compliment you on how well you captured their lives and minds. Please refresh my memory on Holly and Stephen; how did they encounter each other in a previous novel?

Melissa
Melissa asked Tana French:

Your books tend to deal with dark material. Do you ever have trouble turning off "writer mode" when you're in the middle of a book? Does it affect your mood in your everyday life?
