Writing methods
For anyone interested in writing methods - and mine in particular - I'm interviewed on the subject today on the blog of writer Tom Vowler, as part of Flying with Magpies, the virtual tour I'm conducting for my novel Too Many Magpies.
'An analytical, and sometimes funny, take on the world of fiction reading, writing and publishing' - The Cerebral Mum 'Other than the fact that the lady writes well, with insight, empathy and personality, that she speaks her mind and shies not from confrontation when such is necessary and constructive ... there is really no reason for me to visit her blog' - Alan Kellogg
'Pretty great all the time' - Scott Pack
STORIES
What if you made a different choice, or had a different life?
'The stories in Used to Be are the work of a dazzling writer' - Nuala O'Connor
'One of the finest short story writers in the country' - Neil Campbell
Short stories 'Quite swept me off my feet... Nothing would have induced me to interrupt Balancing on the Edge of the World by Elizabeth Baines until I'd read them all' - Dovegreyreader
'A disturbing and thought-provoking meditation on power, control and the uncertain language of logic' - Carys Bray. For more see my website and the Salt website with PDF sample.
