Mackenzie Crook writes children's book Posted: 31 Oct 2011 01:13 PM PDT ![]() The British star admits he dreamed up the idea for his debut novel, The Windvale Sprites, with his young son Jude in mind. He tells The Independent on Sunday newspaper: "I wrote it as a book that I would have wanted to read when I was a kid, and my son is like a little clone of me; he adored it. "In fact, I finished reading it to him last night. He was so into it. I would've been able to tell if he was just trying to please me." And Crook admits the idea for a children's book has been in his head for a long time: "It occurred to me about 25 years ago. It's all based after the great storm of 1987 - it's been percolating for all that time - and it's only in the past two years that I managed to get it down. It's probably becoming a father that gave me the kick I needed to actually get it done. "While doing this book I came to realise that's what I love doing - it's telling stories, whether writing, drawing, or from acting. I suppose that's what's in my blood - I'm a storyteller - one way or another." Tags: |
