She says that the theme for Traitor arose out of reading about Nuremburg, and she thought that she might as well use the younger Marlows. Ditto for F L. She wanted to write a pony book, publishers said "another animal". She thought about the Marlows and falconry on the Heath, decided that wouldnt do, and moved them to Trennels. Peter's Room came from getting intersted in the Brontes and then seeing an outbuilding that a boy had taken over. So the pov idea dropped early. Oh and I was fascinated that the Thuggery language isnt meant to be any particular dated slang but a specifically made up language. I suppose that eggery peggery must have been invented in the same way.
