All About Agatha Christie

Interview with Literary Map Designer (Yes, That's a Thing) Ben Olins


Listen Later

It isn't every day I get to interview a map designer on All About Agatha. Nor is it every day I get to work on a map with a map designer, which is something I've been doing on the side in tribute to my late co-host, Catherine Brobeck, whom Ben and I talk about at some length in our conversation. We also talk some Christie, because of course we do; I know Catherine wouldn't have had it any other way.

Loose Lips, the second book in my Ghostwriter Mysteries series, is currently available for purchase.

Time for some map links! Here is Catherine Brobeck's map of Joan Didion's Los AngelesCaroline Crampton's map of Agatha Christie's England, and Martin Edwards's Golden Age of Mystery map of England.

And here is a link to the general Herb Lester catalogue of gloriously weird maps.

You can also buy The Busy Body, the first book in my Ghostwriter Mysteries series, in paperback at your bookseller of choice (make it an indie if you possibly can) in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia and New Zealand.
