Pertinent Info About Follett Should Be Allowed to Stay

I recently added the following to Ken Follett's page:

At the time of World Without End's release Follett expressed nervousness about returning to the same fictional town of Kingsbridge because of the high expectations readers of Pillars of the Earth had. Despite the success of both novels Follett has stated that he would return to writing about WWII because there "are thousands more stories of real-life heroism to inspire writers."[1]

This information come from a substantiated interview with the author and is pertinent because it details the author's feelings at the release of World Without End the sequel to Pillars of the Earth that arrived twenty years later. In addition, the addition discusses the fact that Follett plans to return to the WWII drama/mysteries that made him a literary success in the future. I think that all of this information is pertinent to an article that contains very little cited information about Follett.

It should be noted the site, Loaded Questions, which has been linked to is a site in which I participate and conduct interviews. It should also be noted that Loaded Questions does not sell any products and and stands to make no monetary gain by ensuring that Wikipedia has the most current information about Ken Follettt, his career and his novels. The information which has been added to this page is not of a controversial nature and it is my belief that, despite the fact that I conducted the interview, it is information which must be included on the Ken Follett page.

Facebook, Twitter links

This page has links to Follett's facebook and twitter pages, right in the introduction. It looks like an ad. Taking them out. Edit: Well, it seems somebody beat me to it ^_^ Escozzia (talk) 23:42, 26 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

best selling softporn and pulp writers marketing page

this wiki article seems completely like the writers advertisment page. no criticism whatsoever mentioned, instead links to the authors various self-marketing pages (twitter, facebook, etc). at least the classification of the writers literary genre (eg: softporn-thriller pulp - in various historical settings) and some substantial (eg.: not hollow praising but some shortages mentioned as well) literary critique is missing from the article.77.234.80.218 (talk) 16:09, 11 January 2015 (UTC)Reply


this reference on the talkpage (but thanksgod not in the article itself) " ^ Interview with author Ken Follett for the release of World Without End." seems to be a dead link. 77.234.80.218 (talk) 00:02, 12 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
