Theresa T asked Michelle Vernal:

Hi . I really enjoyed The Promise. You seem to know the Isle of Wight very well, have you been there to visit or did you just research it well? Why did you choose it as your setting for the story ?

Michelle Vernal Hi Theresa, so sorry for the late response. Thanks so much for letting me know you enjoyed The Promise. I have never been to the Isle of Wight but would like to visit, hopefully when travel restrictions ease up. I had a pictorial book I used as well as google earth for research. I chose the island because I'm adopted and my birth family has ties to it. In particular, they are distantly related to Molly Downer, the last witch on the island. I had to write a story when I found that out! Thanks again for reading the book, take care xx Michelle
