So many! I would say I am going through a phase trying to support British writers so high on my list is Ashland & Vine, by John Burnside.

I have to write, it is part of who I am. Though my work has recently shifted and grown in depth. I felt inspired by Brexit and the coronavirus recently, as I am writing a contemporary novel, thus I have been asking people about their experiences and using my own to weave people's experiences into the framework of my book (working title: Fran).

Shattered Roses was inspired by Beauty and the Beast. I wanted to use a fragmented narrative to reflect one central character's mind. This was a bit of a mess at the beginning so I added Megan's narrative to pull the threads together. The book I am writing currently (Working title: Fran) was inspired by wanting to write a book about two women's friendship and possible reconciliation. Can two close friends who have fallen out find their way back to each other? Is forgiveness possible?
