I would definitely visit the world of Dragons in a cartoon I loved as a child called "The Flight of Dragons"...

I am currently writing this... it is the story or mystery of how my family came to be in Gibraltar!
Otherwise, I guess I have no other unsolved ones at the moment!

This is a REALLY hard question to answer. I am tempted to say Elizabeth Bennett and Mrs Darcy just because there romance has truly inspired so many other novels and she rocks as a female role model!
However, I also love stories about real underdogs... and for that one I choose Beauty and the Beast. An intelligent woman who sees through the artificial exterior of a man and finds his inner beauty is truly something.
What do you think?

I write whenever I find time... during the day when I'm not at work, evenings, weekends - when possible, or on my iPad as I watch a film!
Hope you're keeping well :)

Hybrid was my first published novel and I worked so hard on it to improve/ get it ready that it has to be my favourite. The main characters were established in this novel for the next books I wrote and it was great fun to think them up! I also went down memory lane by using my experience at Southampton, swim training, my own insecurities. Writing them down made me exorcise some demons!
Ultimately, I loved escaping into that coming-of-ago setting whilst adding a splash of SciFi & the paranormal. It was so much fun!

I had to look up who "50cent" was on Twitter and the truth is that I can't remember... Maybe? :)

Thank you for asking a question! I am new to this and only just saw it!
The reason I wrote First Date was for the Christmas Anthology, A Festive Feast, to raise money for charity. However, I could not stick to 5000 words and it doubled in size. This is why it ended up longer, and I then had to write another one, The Engagement Party, for the Anthology.
However, I do love Christmas time and admit it is my favourite time of the year. I have many other special memories to write about. One day I might disclose more of my true stories, but to be safe I'll wait a few years. Don't want to embarrass anyone!

The story of my great, great grandparents, which is set in London, Jamaica and Gibraltar!

Read a book, watch TV, do mundane tasks, exercise... I lead a busy life. Writing is the fun part, when it happens.

Pure and utter escapism. Since publishing, I have also made a lot of online friends from all over the world.

Write from the heart and it'll show. But, be prepared to work hard after you have crafted your story.

I love being creative. When I write I escape reality. I do have to avoid distractions though!

My father wrote an article in the Gibraltar Heritage Journal which shocked me. I had no idea my ancestors past was so mixed. I wanted to find out more and delve into their reality.
