Reading. And walks. Walking alone is always inspiring.

It is a bold statement but it has a classical/ancient vibe.

The statue on black is very classy; but the colourful designs are appealing too…🤔

They all sound good! (I know that doesn’t help you choose which WIP to focus on 😂 but at least it’s encouraging)

I like to know the ‘shape’ of it before I start. And it does help if you have a good idea for the ending, or even a couple of alternative endings that you can decide between when you get there!

When I first started writing I used to just start, and let the story take me where it took me. Over time I’ve got better at planning. I find having a rough outline makes it more cohesive and I don’t get stuck. For a novel I have a notebook of ideas and plans that I add to; I don’t always use them.

I love that! The sudden inspiration! Definitely a good idea to act on it. As you say, the novel will still be there.

It’s a good way to refresh your writing. You and your novel just need a break from each other!

Sounds interesting!

Thank you! 😊

Thank you! I think the fact she says she’ll seek out my other books is most flattering. That’s how we want readers to feel, isn’t it?

The Trial is great too.

It’s a good cover 😃

It looks like a psychological thriller.
