Hi Anna, It fascinates me to think of you writing about ships, smugglers and the high seas? How do you do that? Are you a sailor? What has been your most fascinating resource?
Anna Faversham
I grew up by the sea. I sat in a hidey hole on the cliffs to do my homework, never dreaming that one day I would incorporate my secret getaway into a book (One Dark Night). I visited smugglers caves and was enthralled with the great caverns that had been carved out and lengthy, miles long tunnels. They featured in Hide in Time. And yes, I have sailed. Not very well but the family have chartered yachts on Loch Lomond and in the Lake District. And we've sailed around the Isle of Wight quite a bit. Once in a gale, gusting to force 8. Exciting, though progress was slow!
Most fascinating resource? Definitely real life. And observing people.

When you look back, Anna, I wonder what were the biggest surprises in your writing career? Mine, I think, was getting over 6000 'likes' from a promotion in India, which just blew me away... as did the next discovery: the 'likes' didn't result in a single sale...
