On Writing Thrillers - WESeminar

Wesleyan University's WESeminar series Homecoming/ Family Weekend October 2008
Michael Palmer and Lee Child did not set out to be writers. Palmer was a physician who specialized in internal medicine and Child had had a 20-year career in television production in England. But, at the age of nearly 40, each of them decided to try their hands at writing and now, between the two of them, they have 25 bestsellers and have made their mark as key figures in the thrillers genre. Join them as they share all on writing thrillers.

James Grant P 02, is the author of Killing Floor, Die Trying, Tripwire, Running Blind, Echo Burning, Without Fail, Persuader, The Enemy, One Shot, The Hard Way, and Bad Luck and Trouble in 2008; Michael Palmer 64, P 88, MD is associate director of the Massachusetts Medical Societys physician health program and an author whose books include The First Patient (2008), The Fifth Vial, The Society, Fatal, The Patient, Miracle Cure, Critical Judgment, Silent Treatment, Natural Causes, Extreme Measures, Flashback, Side Effects, and The Sisterhood
