I will tell you about it because it is the best example I know\. I was writing As The Crow Flies\. Charlie Trumper, my protagonist, was in trouble\. The one person on earth who could get him out of the trouble was an elderly matron in a nursing home in Australia\. So Charlie flies, twelve thousand miles, from London to Sydney\. He finds the home\. He knocks on the door\. The matron opens the door — and Charlie tells her that he has come to see Mrs Trentham\. The matron says: "I'm so sorry\. Mrs Trentham… - [Have you ever written a screenplay?](https://jeffreyarcher.com/ask-jeffrey/has-jeffrey-archer-written-a-screenplay/): Two\. Paths of Glory, and False Impression\. Both written for specific producer interest; neither, in the end, produced as I had hoped\. The lesson of those two attempts is the reason I have not written more\. A screenplay is a fundamentally different craft from a novel\. The novel happens in the reader's head — the prose creates the scene, the inner life, the time of day, the smell of the room\. The screenplay is a blueprint\. It exists only to be made — by a director, a cinematographer, a production designer, actors\. Everything you write is a set of instructions for… - [Have your books been made into films and TV?](https://jeffreyarcher.com/ask-jeffrey/jeffrey-archer-film-tv-adaptations/): Yes, several — and many more are in development\. The story of my books on screen is, in many ways, the story of how television used to work and how it works now\. Kane \& Abel was made into a CBS television mini\-series in the United States in 1985, starring Peter Strauss as Abel Rosnovski and Sam Neill as William Lowell Kane\. It was a serious production for its day — multiple episodes, full network budget, big audiences\. The book had been published five years earlier and had become a global bestseller, and the studio bet on a faithful adaptation\. They… - [How do I write a novel?](https://jeffreyarcher.com/ask-jeffrey/how-to-write-a-novel/): By doing it\. Every day\. For as long as it takes\. I have written more than thirty novels and a great many short stories, and the method has not changed in fifty years\. I have a routine that has not changed in fifty years — four two\-hour shifts a day, six days a week\. The full routine is in What time of day should I write? I write by hand\. Lined A4 pads, black ink\. The physical act of pushing a pen across paper — slower than typing, infinitely more deliberate — is, for me, the difference between writing and typing\.… - [How do you write a sad ending?](https://jeffreyarcher.com/ask-jeffrey/how-to-write-a-sad-ending/): It is harder to write an unhappy ending and keep the reader satisfied than to write a happy one\. That sentence has been on my desk, written on a piece of paper above my hourglass, for fifty years\. It is the truest thing I know about endings\. A happy ending forgives a great deal — the reader closes the book on a smile, and the small failures of the middle drift away\. A sad ending forgives nothing\. The reader closes the book on a feeling, and if that feeling is not exactly the right feeling, you have lost them\.
