Pamela Mclaren
Pamela Mclaren asked Jacqueline Winspear:

I assume that as a lot of authors you were an avid reader as a child. Was there one book -- or author -- that you read and it prompted you to think, I want to be an author too?

Jacqueline Winspear I was an obsessive reader. It was probably "One Hundred and One Dalmations" that did it, along with "The Trouble With Angels" by Jane Trahey - I realized I really liked reading memoir, and that I could do that too.
