When did you know you wanted to write books?
I’ve always known I would be a writer, but life
got in the way! I graduated in modern foreign languages from Westfield College,
London, moved to Spain, got married, and started working as a teacher. Soon
after I had children, and there was never enough time. I started writing in my
fifties, once my children had left home and started their own lives. I don’t
regret taking my time to embark on my career as an author. Life isn’t a race to
the finish line, it’s a journey to be experienced. I’m here now and I have a
story to tell. That’s what counts.
What does your writing process look like?
I have a
plan or outline in my mind, which I jot down and expand until I’m satisfied
that my story actually exists. Once the story’s there, I plan my plot arc.
There are many plot outlining techniques which can be very helpful for an
author to plan her novel. This way has worked for me so far. My novels fall
into three acts with about ten scenes in each act. These three parts correspond
to:
a) The exposition,
where the characters, setting, and the conflict are presented.
b) Secondly
the characters deal with the conflict,
and often more complications arise, although part two often ends in an optimistic
note as at least some of the conflict seems to have a solution.
c) The
third part leads to the final outcome,
which can be positive or negative or a mixture, but there are more unexpected
challenges before the end.
I write the
scenes without following the chronological order. I need to see the scenes before I can write
them. I see the characters, where they are, what they are doing and thinking. I
work through the scenes in my mind several times as I go for a walk, or
sometimes I talk it through aloud to myself or with someone who is very close
to me, and I take handwritten notes. Once I sit at my computer, the scene
usually flows easily. The hard work starts after that, as I edit and tie up the
different scenes in the novel.

Snippets
Drawn again
like a magnet, I cupped his face in my hands, brushed my lips against his cheek
and whispered in his ear. “Please, Michael, do not look at me like that when
anyone else is watching.” I forced myself to break away and flew out of the
room.

“You are
like a hidden treasure. You were right next to me for years, but I had never
really seen you.”
He held me
tighter in silence. I had almost relaxed into slumber, when he spoke softly
into my hair. “I knew you were the brightest jewel in the world the first day I
saw you.”
***
“Michael,
would you hand this letter to Mr. Raven and accompany him to the fireplace
while he burns it, please?”
“Gladly,
madam.”
I watched
as both men approached the small fireplace, and sighed in relief as the flames
destroyed the wicked words and sinful deeds described on the worn parchment.
