It's a rainy summer, so I'll be writing...
I'm an Ex-Londoner now living in a pretty part of the north of England, writing stories that remind me of the city I love.
Things that I love in a story:
- Heroes and villains trading quips while they fight.
- Daring escapes (see also: quicksand).
- Detailed descriptions of delicious food.
- Long lost relatives with shady pasts.
- Genuinely scary monsters. Super creeps.
- Dusty offices filled with intriguing objects.
- Quicksand.
And as I write the sort of things that I would like to read, you can find all of the above in the upcoming chapters of THE ADVENTURES OF LOCKSLEY & HARPER.
Writers I like: Elena Ferrante, Zadie Smith, Philip Pullman, Neil Gaiman, Donna Tartt, Javier Marias, Roberto Bolano, PG Wodehouse.
If you'd like me to take a look at your story, just point me in the right direction... I'm new here, so please show me around :)
