Dan Brown Research Quotations

Google' is not a synonym for 'research'.

As strange as this may sound, I very seldom read fiction. Because my novels require so much research, almost everything I read is non - fiction - histories, biographies, translations of ancient texts..

I read nonfiction almost exclusively - both for research and also for pleasure. When I read fiction, it's almost always in the thriller genre, and it needs to rivet me in the opening few chapters.

This was wonderful. I now had a sounding board and a travel partner on research trips ... She also served as a first pass set of eyes for new sections I was writing.
