wonderwomand asked Jacqueline Winspear:

Do you call yourself a novelist or an author ?

Jacqueline Winspear I call myself a writer. I write a lot of things - novels, essays, articles. I write, so I am a writer.

I am always curious as to how authors come up with their story ideas. Can you tell me how you came up with the idea for your new book? I'm also interested in why you've chosen WWI (and just following as with the Maisie Dobbs series) for your time period? And how much research do you do for each of your novels?
