1 the F Word: Writing Fantasy for Children the Patrick Hardy Lecture 2011 Jonathan Stroud
1 The F Word: Writing Fantasy for Children The Patrick Hardy Lecture 2011 Jonathan Stroud Hello. It’s an honour to be here with you this evening. So: ‘The F Word’: Writing Fantasy for Children. I should say it’s thanks to my wife, Gina, that I’m talking about this. A few weeks ago the committee asked me what I’d be speaking on and I looked at them in that appealingly blank way I have. You see, I often have trouble with titles. My view is they’re naturally the last thing to come, after I’ve finished everything else. Otherwise, how can you truly know what the story or lecture’s about? I reckon it’s a valid position, but I do take it to extremes. For my first novel I remember sitting in Lincoln’s Inn Fields during my lunch hour frantically writing out a long list of possible titles while my editor, the lovely Delia Huddy, waited patiently by a telephone in Pimlico, with the book due off to production that afternoon. It was a story about a nasty dragon, trapped underground, and I went through every conceivable scaly, fiery permutation until, at about three minutes to two, I hit on Buried Fire. I think Delia liked the title, but the tremble in her voice was probably just relief. Come to think of it, most of my books since have had naming issues, too. ‘The Bartimaeus Trilogy: The Amulet of Samarkand’ probably holds the record for percentage of incomprehensible words within a given title. The Golem’s Eye is still ‘Gollum’ to many. -
