I’m so excited! Even though I have published and toured my memoirs internationally, it feels different having a work of fiction – creative imagination – to offer the world.
The character Mila came to me while I was running in the bush in Whangārei. Her story gradually unfolded under the guidance of tutors at NorthTec in 2019. Pip Adam was my mentor. Together we worked through some creative issues and then, with further guidance from my agent Vicki Marsdon of HighSpot Literary agency, we had a manuscript that was ready to send into the world.
Quentin Wilson’s reader loved the story, so does he. So save your pennies – ready for a launch in early 2022. I will keep you updated.
I’m looking forward to having proofs to edit in my writing hut which is about two weeks from completion – thanks, COVID-19 for the delay!
