Jo Nesbo is one of the world’s top crime thriller writers. With Martin Scorsese directing a film of The Snowman, and more readers discovering his work every day, it’s easy to see the trajectory ahead. In this Skip Prichard interview Jo reflects on his burgeoning success.
Jo’s path to bestselling writer was unorthodox. He started playing professional football (soccer for US readers) and was sidelined after ruining ligaments in both knees. Since then he’s been mostly known as a successful rock star.
Unlike many writers who don’t know the ending and write organically, Jo outlines extensively. So much so, he spends about a year just planning.
“When I actually sit down and I write chapter one and the story begins, I don’t have the feeling that I’m creating the story,” Jo says. “I just have the feeling that I’m retelling the story.”
Does the success of one book add pressure and make it harder or easier to write the next one? Jo responded that the sales figures don’t change anything for him, but, “What inspires me is the feeling that I’m getting better at what I’m doing.”
