Len Deighton on the writing process
I’ve put aside two or three books when they were almost complete. Others I’ve started over again. SS-GB was originally written in the first person, then rewritten in the third person from page one. Goodbye Mickey Mouse was restructured because technical problems came up…I scrapped what I’d written, and started again. -from The Len Deighton Companion. 1987. London: Grafton Books; page 20.
