…I just can’t see any correlation between Richard having written some mystery plots and having a sneaky mind…plots/characters etc …much of that skill is in research, I would say…and some/many/maybe most writers will in their own personality traits etc, be the exact opposite of their characters and plots…all of the time and every day/in every way/type thing, we can and do feel surprise in discovering what someone’s job is because it doesn’t reflect their character…one of my brothers used to be a barrister, he’s the most un-barrister of people outside of his work but was very barrister within it when he did it…Richard hasn’t in any way placed and invented ‘protagonists and antagonists’ and plots and twists …those are all self invented by the housemates or engineered by BB…hmmmmmm, maybe he’ll write a Caroline type character into one of his future works…or maybe he would think…nope, that character would be too ***ing boring……
