I just stumbled across an interview with Val McDermid, the well-known and best-selling writer of crime fiction, in an old magazine. It discussed her life and how she pursued her dream of becoming a writer. (In case anyone else is interested, her biography on her own website tells a similar story
What tickled me though is that she has recently got together with other writers of crime fiction to form a rock band called - wait for it - the ‘Fun Lovin’ Crime Writers’. They play covers of classic rock songs or, in their own words, “Murder songs for fun”
Love it.

Her name sounds familiar but I haven't read anything she's written. Maybe I know the name because sometimes other writers, in their books, will mention what their character is reading and I don't always recognise the name.
