Anne Rooney
I write books of all sizes for people of all sizes. On the whole, I write short books for
short
people and longer books
for longer people. But I also write a fair number of short books for long people - they're for
older readers who aren't
yet confident with long books. A lot of the books I write are things that are true. Others are
totally made up. Even the made up ones aren't entirely
lies. Stories help us discover universal truths through literal lies. So that lies/truth thing
-
it's trickier than it
looks.
