Ian McEwan interview at the Guardian Open Weekend festival
Author Ian McEwan in conversation with the Guardian's deputy editor Ian Katz at the Guardian Open Weekend festival. Here, McEwan discusses hiking; the importance of indolence to writers; moving house, which means the loss of his writing room; and how on 9/11 he broke with his policy of refusing journalistic commissions

Thank you so much to The Guardian for this interview with Ian McEwan. So many good questions from Ian Katz. It is always interesting to hear about a great novelist's writing process.

Ian McEwan rocks, though I have been less impressed with his novels of late. My personal favorites, "Saturday" and "Atonement". Brilliant novelist!
