Was CAL fair to JB in her book?

Calling someone a coward from behind a computer screen? Very courageous Caroline.

Oh I would say that to your face - no problem!

Come down and say it then.

If I'm in the area - I'll let you know!

Lots of history books on the shelves Lookout about folk from history. All that stuff about the likes of Henry VIII might as well be banished to the bins. In fact anything written about history. Lets bin it - no one was there and no one met those involved. 

I'm talking about people in the here and now. Your answer has nothing whatsoever to do with what I posted------as usual when you try and wriggle out of something.

Only five stops via high speed rail. I thought you said no problem?

i can't accept that any published author, whether its biographic or fiction, writes anything -other than their autobiography- without doing some research on their subject

I wouldn't make a special trip to come and see YOU! You must be joking! If I am in the area - I'll let you know. How do you know it's 5 stops? You don't know where I live.

Kimberley is unique and writes more from imagination and as she sees crimes happening. She uses her brilliant mind in writing her own brand of  "novels" to which over a million have been sold worldwide.
Crimes per se don't have to be researched they happen all the time in every form and this is her subject which she gets all her material from----no particular person in mind but nevertheless there are certain familiarities in what she writes without naming names and I'm sure many readers can and have related to some of her novels.

Far more interesting that someone writing gossip about something/someone she knows nothing about at all.

I've not read anything by her but it sounds as if you're saying that anything she writes is literally no more than her opinion? Surely then, it can be interpreted as being gossip which she's starting?

You said there was no problem. Now there is a problem, why the change of heart?

I know roughly were you live give or take 50 odd miles. If you take the Transpennine Express at Newcastle its only 2 stops! The journey is less than three hours. I am only trying to help, you sounded very enthusiastic up until now.

It's not gossip----if you can call gangland crime that. She forms a story around a crime whatever it might be.

Which would allow her licence to be less than strictly factual, wouldn't it? How is that any different from that which you claim is being done by those authors, of whom you disapprove, of the Bamber case? As I see it, the author who writes from the view point of Jeremy being innocent, would be feted by Jeremy supporters. Others will see it as being a work of fiction.

I didn't say it was factual, she writes novels. I wouldn't even say that all CAL's musings were factual if she was being honest as you certainly aren't given the full picture, just smatterings of which she felt enough to sell her book and to also add a bit of spice towards a televised drama.

No one would make a special trip to see you David. Waste of money - if I meet you face to face at some point. You’ll know exactly what I think. By the way, I don’t live in Newcastle and am a bit creeped out that you think you know - even within 50 miles! Have no clue where you live!

After Roch’s earlier post, I think it’s best not to converse with you and a few others. Pests see who the real trouble makers are! Ta, ta!

Indeed.
