Random Routine - Why worldwide bestseller Jeffery Deaver plans for 8 months

This week's bonus bite comes from crime writing behemoth Jeffery Deaver!


Jeffery Deaver has published over 40 novels. He's a globally renowned author, writing crime and thrillers. To him, they're not lauded works of art, they're intricate puzzles, fun and games for the reader - and we talk about how he builds these. 


Jeffery works anywhere he can - any chance he gets to type away, if that's at home, on the plane, perhaps at a dog show, he will. We chat about how he finds time and space to work no matter where he is. 


Listen to the full episode from a couple of years ago earlier on in the feed.
