Hi Emily!
Yes I did :D
It was my first ever visit to Canada - we travelled across Alberta to British Columbia and one day we were sitting in the most beautiful spot on a beach littered with the most amazing driftwood (I've never seen anything like it!) and I just started to imagine vampires hiding in the huge trees behind me, unusual creatures swimming in the ocean and werewolves lurking everywhere and my mind basically went into overdrive. Oh and I do remember there being quite a lot of ravens around as well which must have influenced me at the time too! A few months later I started writing and before I knew it, I'd written my first YA book, Raven.
Canada is the most beautiful country I've ever visited and I know it will continue to inspire me for years to come :)
Thanks so much for taking the time to ask, Emily x

I just go with the flow, go and do something else for a while. I can't be doing with sitting there in front of my computer if my mind's just not playing ball :)

I'm currently working on the latest book in The Morgan Sisters series. I haven't revealed the title yet nor the cover... although that is going to happen in a few weeks!

I listen to music, watch movies, spend way took many hours on Pinterest lol! The music has to be a bit eerie though... like Lana Del Rey or soundtracks from movies like Harry Potter, Twilight, etc.

It was from when I was a kid, I was dancing in one of those cheesy kiddie discos when a boy brushed up against my back. When I turned around, I was smitten. He was so cute! I never forgot about that brief encounter although I didn't obsess about it like Kate, the main character in Forever Fredless!
