What was the hardest book or scene to write and why?
My current wip- ANDATO- is proving very difficult to write. Writer's block is real!
Which book can you read over and over and not get tired of it?
Lord of the rings! I'm a complete Tolkien nut.
Where do you get your inspiration from?
Everywhere and anything! Right now I'm totally inspired by two recent trips to Scotland.
Do you research for your projects? If so, how do begin the process?
I'm a stickler for research. When I'm writing anything historical, it's essential I get the little details right. But, even in my PNR, I had to make sure the 'sciencey' bits made sense.
Do you believe in ghosts or the spiritual world?
I believe in energies and that the universe recycles those energies. Not so much in ghosts.
If you could tell your younger writing self anything, what would it be?
It's much harder than you think, stock up on wine!
As a writer, if you could choose a spirit animal for yourself, which would you choose?
Snow leopard. I just love them.
Who are your favourite authors?
Tolkien, Diana Gabaldon, Terry Pratchett, Stephen King, J K Rowling.
