Shame on me Holly, I've just seen this! Only because I've been writing my what nots off! My sincere apologies. I have heard of Ulster Projects and ironically my next project is writing the 'Project Children' story which brought 23,000 kids over from Ireland to the US during the Troubles. Never say never, you'll get here somehow and I promise you, it'll be worth it! JB

I have had so many experiences in my own life I couldn’t comment! Not so many mysteries. I think the nearest and hardest thing for me is grief. I’ve been able to release my own grief from having lost two brothers and my dad at an early age. J

Being honest, I've never had it - YET! LOL :)

I'm told I'm a control freak! I love having control over plots, how my characters look, feel and act. Some of them, I don't even like! Once I'm in that zone, I can almost feel and touch them. I just love it. My imagination takes me to a place no-one else can go to my own amazing world!

As they say, "Just do it." Do it for yourself first, you'll be amazed at what you can do! I'd never written a short story no matter two novels in my life and I just decided to "do it." If I can, you can!

The second in the series, Darkness has gone through its final edit and will be off to the proof reader next.
In between, I'm marketing and promoting Turmoil as much as I can. What a challenge it is - 2,700 self-published books are released every day and I keep having to think out of the box, "What makes my book different from others, how can I attract readers!" It's a big big world out there!

Firstly, believe in yourself then close your eyes and let your imagination run away with you. As they say, everyone has a book to write, so do it! Just write for the joy of it and if you're lucky enough to make a living from it, lucky you! Remember your imagination can take you anywhere.....

I suddenly realised that there were very few "fictional" stories about the Troubles in the North of Ireland and through my story, I wanted to educate those who didn't know - or at one time want to know - why the troubles began in the first place!
