* '''Bookbag: When you close your eyes and imagine your readers, who do you see?'''
Natasha Solomons: When I started writing 'Viola', I realised that Elise wanted me to get out of the way and let her tell her own story. I think in this instance I felt rather like ''I '' was the reader.
* '''BB: I’ve just finished ‘’The Novel in the Viola’’ and what impressed me most was the period detail which was simply ''there''. You obviously knew a lot more than you felt any need to shoe-horn into the book! Did you know this part of Dorset – and this period – well before you started the book? How much research did you have to do?'''
