As soon as I understood that books were written by authors, that was what I wanted to be. I used to take my scribbled stories (usually about horses!) to my primary school teacher when I was all of seven years old. With regard to important influences, I was blown away by Margaret Atwood in my teenage years. Her anthology <em>Wilderness Tips<\/em> really opened my eyes as to what\u2019s possible within the short story form and, as a result, for a long time I primarily wrote short stories.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where did you get the original idea for <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=2471508\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em><strong>The French Girl<\/strong><\/em><\/a>?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I had the idea for <em>The French Girl<\/em> years before I started work on the novel. When I was doing my doctorate, I went on a summer vacation to a farmhouse in France with a group of friends who were also students at Oxford University; nobody died, thankfully, but the idea came to me then. It was many years before I had both the time and the confidence to actually get started on writing it down.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Your latest novel is <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=2956711\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em><strong>How to Kill Your Best Friend<\/strong><\/em><\/a>. Can you tell us a little about it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>How To Kill Your Best Friend<\/em> is a psychological thriller, told through the eyes of Georgie and Bronwyn, who, together with Lissa, have been inseparable since dominating their college swim team. But Lissa, the strongest swimmer of them all, has somehow drowned off the coast of the fabulous island resort she owned with her husband. Brought together at the resort with Lissa\u2019s closest friends for her funeral, the two women find themselves questioning the circumstances around her death, and as the weather turns ominous, trapping them on the island, nobody knows who they can trust\u2026<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>In How to Kill Your Best Friend<\/em> you effectively alternate the narrative between Bronwyn and Georgie. Was this a conscious decision before you started the book?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It was. I realised early on that I wanted to explore the relationship between the group\u2019s central triumvirate of Lissa, Georgie and Bronwyn, and to do that, I needed to be able to show it from more than one point of view. The reader sees it through both Bronwyn and Georgie\u2019s eyes, but there are also outside viewpoints that become apparent through comments from other members of the friendship group. I hadn\u2019t written a dual narrative before, so it was an interesting challenge, and I think that helped to keep the writing of How To Kill Your Best Friend fresh and exciting for me.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is there anything you can share with us about your latest project?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Not much, I\u2019m afraid! I can tell you that its setting spans both the French Alps and Oxford, and that it explores some murderous intrigue among members of Oxford University academia, but that\u2019s about it for now. I\u2019m not even halfway through the first draft, so everything is fairly fluid at this point.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is the best thing about being a published author?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At the risk of sounding corny, the best thing is interaction with readers. The idea that a tale, that once lived only in my head, has not only come into being on the page but has also struck a chord with a reader, is both thrilling and humbling. I\u2019m always incredibly touched when someone takes time out of their life to reach out to tell me that they\u2019ve enjoyed what I\u2019ve written. I would write even if I what I produced wasn\u2019t published, but the \u201cbeing published\u201d part is what gives me readers, and those truly are a gift.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is there a book you have read that has changed your life or made you think differently?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I read L. M. Montgomery\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/suffolk.spydus.co.uk\/cgi-bin\/spydus.exe\/ENQ\/WPAC\/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&amp;BRN=1753578\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Anne of Green Gables<\/em><\/a> at exactly the right time\u2014which is to say, repeatedly, from the age of 9 onwards! I think young girls in particular need strong role models they can identify with to give them permission to be themselves, and Anne\u2019s intelligence, strength, fearlessness and compassion were perfect for me at a time when I was beginning to struggle with all of the insecurities that come with the onset of adolescence.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is the best advice you were ever given?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With regard to writing, I don\u2019t have a good answer. I seem to remember being given bad advice more than good advice! The bad advice I hear most often is that you need to write every single day\u2014you don\u2019t. You need to write often, and you need to take it seriously, but you shouldn\u2019t beat yourself up if you can\u2019t manage it every day. I consider myself a runner, but I don\u2019t run every single day; rest and recuperation are good, too!<\/p>\n<p>With regard to life in general, the best advice I\u2019ve ever heard is that people will forget what you say and they will forget what you do, but they won\u2019t forget how you made them feel. I frequently remind myself\u2014and my kids\u2014of that.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can you tell us one thing about yourself that your readers may not know?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s one thing which is actually relevant to this book: I swam the English Channel solo in 2007. I can tell you that it\u2019s a very long way \u2014 it took me twelve and a half hours \u2014 and it\u2019s a very cold swim! I was a competitive pool swimmer in my school and university years; I branched out into open water swimming when I was doing my PhD and loved it. I have a group of friends that I go on swimming holidays with, though the pandemic has obviously put paid to that of late. In any case, you can rest assured that I\u2019ve truly done the research for the swimming-related aspects of this novel![\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243;
