A key plot variable in your book "Not In The Flesh" is the writing of a book about the gods of old watching evolution develop the human species, an evolution they are powerless to stop despiter their knowledge that the emergence of humans will result in an end to themselves. Have you written such a book or are you writing such a book now? Has someone else written such a book? I'm asking because a book with that plotline sounds intriguing to me.

Dear Ruth Rendell, I wish you a happy birthday and all the well-being imaginable. I am enjoying your books since decades and look forward to the next ones. Many happy returns Steffi
As a struggling writer and admirer of your work, I would love to know how you got started. Did you send stories away to magazines/periodicals or how were you sustained/encouraged in those early days? If you are not a Peoples Friend writer or a Mills and Boon romantic, there seems little scope today for the more thoughtful stories which may have a darker side to them. Where would you publish your new stories today if you were an unknown?
For Ruth Rendell. By being very detached from people & things actually I do love & appreciate much more everything that comes on my way in life.As in our daily life I hate people that has to make other people to feel attached can be by behaviour approach way to talk etc I do find this not respectful in such ways arrassed intimidate threatining...more detached u are better u SEE & more freely to love & appreciate.While I won't read ur books I do very much praise ur points of view the way u are which makes & help u to be who u are & this done in quite straightforward & genuine manner !!! I do prefer literature biographies cartoons I was a teenager & at that age I had already read who were the GREAT around the world (in every contex).Wishing u further success & achievements with ur books !!!

This is a message for Ruth Rendell. I have to say that fiction genre it's not my passion at all but I have been & i am very interested about Book writers. I myself I do possess a gift for WRITING since I was small I don't know how many hours & hours I spent...with a PEN in my hand writing I just love it I just love to write !While listening ur interview in the TV I did find quite true so many things that I myself I do have in my caracter & way to be !As when u say:While in the process of writing something or working on a project making anyone to see or know does spoil the whole thing...!Or when u say: People when turn around saying:I missed u I miss u I just I don't understand & sometimes to these words I do answer with a bit of humour:That's bad !because I can't be bothered at all I do my best always for the time being can be at work in my free time etc & an hour a day a year later I can't be bothered I do live very much the present the moment after that I don't ask any continuity...
Ruth Rendell heeft inmiddels een nieuwe Wexford: Not in the Flesh (2007).

Dag Nico. Een wat late reactie. Ik heb hem bijgewerkt. Wel zo netjes. De Nederlandse was volgens mij wel up to date. Het kost allemaal inderdaad een boel tijd. Daar kun jij goed over meepraten. Groeten. Ine.
