I wanted to be a novelist from a very early age - 11 or 12 - but I don't think I ever thought I would write historical fiction. I never thought I might write academic history because I simply wasn't good enough!

Ich wollte schon von klein auf ein Romancier sein - 11 oder 12 -, aber ich glaube nicht, dass ich jemals dachte, ich würde historische Fiktion schreiben. Ich hätte nie gedacht, dass ich vielleicht wissenschaftliche Geschichte schreiben könnte, weil ich einfach nicht gut genug war!

When I turned 35, I thought, 'Mozart was dead at 36, so I set the bar: I'm going to start writing a book on my next birthday.' I thought historical fiction would be easiest because I was a university professor and know my way around a library, and it seemed easier to look things up than make them up.

I really always felt that I was going to be an actress. I had a lot of confidence in the fact that I would do well from a very early age. I didn't know how tough the business is.

Susan Lucci

I was always a little bit afraid because I found out at a very early age that once you make a record, all the mistakes and all the good things are there for eternity.

Johnny Mathis

At a very early age I knew I wanted to be an actor and then more specifically that I wanted to be on Broadway and be in musicals.

As a writer of historical fiction, I believe you don't want to fictionalize gratuitously; you want the fictional aspects to prod and pressure the history into new and exciting reactions.

Matthew Pearl

I realised from a very early age that God gave me a gift, and that gift was to run, and I wanted to use it to the best of my ability.

Betty Cuthbert

I was acting since I was a kid, going to drama classes and being involved in every school play and musical that I could get my hands on, so it was something that was a part of me from a very early age.

Yvonne Strahovski

You can't believe anything that's written in an historical novel, and yet the author's job is always to create a believable world that readers can enter. It's especially so, I think, for writers of historical fiction.

Justin Cartwright

It's still funny for me to think of myself as someone who writes historical fiction because it seems like a really fusty, musty term, and yet it clearly applies.
