Sincere Thanks to her for giving her time and trouble to answer all these questions so beautifully.

And to you my blog readers I will ask:
Where do you choose to write?

I have only once written in a Café , outside never inside; I have never plucked up the courage. I love to compose things on country walks and I love bright, sunny days to warm up my creative juices.

Blogger threw a wobbly. It took way longer than the hour they said to fix and they lost 2 posts and all the wonderful attached comments, so I have withdrawn my Friday post to re-schedule it for later and will re-post these missing posts with the comments inserted below.

You saved the best questions to last, Madeleine and Sandi. With my writing break coming up I've already decided I can't do all my writing sat at the dining room table; I'd go crazy. So, I'll be spending some time at my favourite coffee shop.

I need to write somewhere very quiet with a cat around! :-) Take care x

I wrote the first two chapters of my WIP on the terrace of a hotel in Luxor, overlooking the Nile. The visit to Egypt had given me the idea for a new novel, and I had to buy a notebook to start writing it there and then!


Damyanti & Old Kitty, yes I agree it's a weakness of mine to just check my blog/emails...
LOL Ellie, I haven't plucked up courage to do that yet.
Wow Paula that is fabulous! :O)

  7. Stay off the internet. Now there's one I need to work on. It's just too easy to get on the internet when I'm stuck on a plot point.

    Great interview, guys. Now I need to work on that no distractions thing.
