Kathy Reichs
Why do all your brilliant ideas involve felonies?
Kathy Reichs
Hiram!' Shelton ran to Hi's side. 'Aren't you you bleeding? I thought she shot you!' 'Red wine. When I saw it running everywhere, I played dead.' He winced as Shelton poked his belly. 'But I'm not leaping off any more shelves. That was pretty stupid.

My first book was the most successful debut novel in the UK ever and every one of my books has reached number one in the UK. Clearly the British know brilliance when they see it.
Kathy Reichs
Indecision is the key to flexibility.
Kathy Reichs
I've been accused of being a minimalist writer. I don't like a lot of verbiage in there.
Kathy Reichs
I do interviews and signings and readings and all of these people just hang off my every word. And then I go home and have dinner with my family and nobody lets me get a word in.
Kathy Reichs
I tend to watch a lot of movies at home. It's nice to be close to the refrigerator with my pyjamas on and just relax.
