Interview

Have you ever used a typewriter?

Yes - I remember getting an old one from my aunt when I was younger and tapping out stories with my sister.

Who's your favorite fictional journalist?

All of the women in the Bold Type (highly underrated show).

What story are you most proud of writing or working on?

I am the proudest of writing about Victoria Pier, Shetland's first drag artist. LGBTQ stories are always close to my heart.

When you're not at a computer, where are you most likely to be?

In the kitchen - I find it's the best way to switch my brain off and as I need to eat gluten free, home made treats taste much better.
