In the 1980s, Cornwell wrote three novels that she says were rejected before the publication, in 1991, of her first major success, Postmortem. After the success of Postmortem, Cornwell bought five houses and as many cars in one year. Then, after an evening out with actress Demi Moore, who was visiting to discuss playing Scarpetta in a film, Cornwell crashed her Mercedes, was convicted of drunk driving and sentenced to 28 days in a treatment centre.
After studying the criminal brain for her 2005 book, Predator, Cornwell said she reversed her position in support of the death penalty and concluded that the mind is formed by nature and nurture acting upon each other, which does not mean that someone is chemically doomed to become a psychopathic murderer. In her interview with The Times, Cornwell used similar concepts to describe herself, saying that she was “wired differently”, in a direct reference to her struggle with bipolar disorder

Why listen to audio books? In today's busy world, finding time to sit down to read for most people is very difficult. With audio books, "reading" can be done whilst driving, ironing, cooking, jogging. In fact just about at any time. Revisit some classics - Jane Eyre. Or listen to the latest Clive Cussler.
For children, audio books are a way to get children loving books from an early age. It is well known that children that read do better at school. When studying for GCSEs, many parents have realised how much listening to Of Mice and Men or To Kill a Mockingbird audio books can help in exam preparation.
Of course people with visual impairment derive huge pleasure from audio books, but so too do people who do a large amount of travelling. Particularly drivers who cover large distances. Reading is of course not an option!
