Author Sebastian Faulks has been licensed to write new James Bond novels.
By his own admission, the 54-year-old's writing routine stands in stark contrast to the glamorous lifestyle of Bond's creator - who lived life very much in the fashion of his iconic creation.
"In his house in Jamaica, Fleming used to write a thousand words in the morning, then go snorkelling, have a cocktail, lunch on the terrace, more diving, another thousand words in late afternoon, then more Martinis and glamorous women," said Faulks.
"In my house in London I followed this routine exactly, apart from the cocktails, the lunch and the snorkelling."
The new book, entitled Devil May Care and to be published next May, is set in the Cold War. Bond is widowed and vulnerable but remains heroically gallant and libidinous.
Some more info:
To mark the centenary of Ian Fleming's birth, Penguin will be creating a special James Bond imprint, "Penguin 007" - under which Devil May Care will be published in hardback in May 2008.
What is important to fans about this news, which has been missed by almost all reports, is that under the new 007 imprint, Penguin will publish all their Bond titles.
The company will also be launching a new website - www.penguin007.com (not online at the time of writing).
