Philippa Stirling
I'm inspired by life and little things.
My book 'Still Life' was literally sparked by a single scene in a television talent show. I saw the place; I wondered about the status of one of the primary participants in the program; I Googled and... BOOM. I got the kernel of a story.
'In A Green & Shady Place' is the 'author' of the book caught in a wrinkle of Fate. I had written the first few drafts of 'Still Life' and began to think about 'what if...' That developed into a new story.
The book on which I'm working now, which I hope to release before Christmas (2018), is about friendship. It was inspired by my interactions with someone with whom I worked, and a building on of my reactions to that person.
