How and when did you start your writing?
My first piece was a poem aged 10, after visiting the Tutankhamen exhibition in London and ever since, I've come home from new adventures and committed my
thoughts and experiences to paper.
My first piece of published (and
paid!) writing was an article for the
Dancing Times, after attending my
first day of belly dance workshops
in London, nine years ago.
As a child, I read and wrote
stories, losing myself in the lives of
the characters and while in my early
twenties, I wrote children's and
short stories but it was on a two
day writing course, ten years ago, that I believed I could be a writer.
