Patricia Cornwell Ahead of ‘Scarpetta’ Premiere 

mercredi 4 mars 2026Duration 22:15

Cornwell reveals her struggles — she received so many rejections she almost gave up on her dream of becoming an author. Her first signing was a bust: every bookstore in town refused to host her...except for a religious bookstore, who agreed to do it if she would give a free case of books. Not a single person attended, but one man perused her book then threw it across the room and and a woman asked her to throw away her dirty tissue. She reflects on how it feels now on the other side of stratospheric success, having sold more than 100 million books, with a series set to stream on Amazon Prime starring Nicole Kidman alongside Jamie Lee Curtis. She shares the secrets to her craft, her thoughts on AI, and how feels herself to be a "humble scribe." The Plotpoint is built for readers, writers, and anyone chasing success while navigating real life.
