I've carriied out a number of interviews with writers this year, all of which have been huge fun to do. I also love reading writer interviews and never fail to learn something that might help me improve what I do. And the fact I can learn as I enjoy a cup of tea or whatever is even better.
My work is definitely aimed at adults, especially women, but regardless of genre, any writer of adult fiction owes a huge debt to the writers of "children's" literature. (I personally think the word children can cover all age ranges from 0 to 99, hence the speech marks). Writers of adult fiction know the majority of their audience comes from those who have loved reading from an early age and are progressing through different stages of book reading. Most do not suddenly decide they're going to read a work of adult fiction.
So to anyone tempted to dismiss "children's" literature, think again. It is the very solid foundation for all sorts of reading. And without the love of books instilled, ideally as early as possible, the whole world of publishing would be in serious trouble. The market has to come from somewhere after all.
