The idea for Book Three comes from A Midsummer Night's Dream, and the earlier books in the series. Harriet will continue to grow as a character and show that she's made of tougher stuff than even she thinks.
A MSND is a harder Shakespearean text to fracture as it has so many parallel plot lines. It's also a comedy, setting it apart from the first two novel which were based on tragedies.

I often have thoughts running through my head, and I jot them down and see where they take me when I have a moment to consider them!

I'm currently working on the next in the Into the Abyss series, Scourge of Scotland. It's a twist of Macbeth and it's more than just a fracture this time. Character growth and development, intricate plot twists and a few more scandals occur in this instalment!

Don't hide behind the fear. Just do it! As hard as it seems at times, as insurmountable as the challenges seem and as many excuses as you might have - you can do it. Use your strengths, use your support networks and allow them to help you through the initial process. Or, if you're shy, wait until you have something that you're proud of. Either way, get writing!

The ability to create characters who I fall in love with - people who I would want to know. The responsibility to entertain is a heavy one, but it's also a joy to bear. I adore creating stories that people will want to follow to the very end.

I deal with writer's block by giving myself a timeframe - take away the distractions and just sit and write anything. I might delete it soon after, but it gets the creativity flowing again and my eye in for the continuation of the story.
