Mariia Manko asked Fiona Valpy:

Fiona, when did you realize yourself as a writer? After writing first book, publishing , success or …? You know this feeling inside «I am truly a writer»

Fiona Valpy Sometimes I still have to pinch myself to be sure I'm not dreaming! It's a long path and not an easy one, so there were a few moments along the way when good things happened. The first was getting my first book - THE FRENCH FOR LOVE - published. The second was when a major publisher offered me a contract and an advance for my next books. And the third was the day when I was finally able to give up the day job and be a writer full-time. I think perhaps that last one was the moment when I truly believed it :-)
