I’m A.A and I am the author of Dear Maggie, To Mr. Van Barrett and Evie-Me and the seasons. I am also an artist and student. I am due to graduate with a degree in Art History and Creative Writing in 2023!
I was born in Cornwall and am now raising my own children in Cornwall!
My favourite book is The Wind In The Willows. I have about 12 copies! I love collecting classic and vintage children's books but The Wind In The Willows makes up most of my collection!
A very large cup of coffee!
I'm a sucker for a cheesy romance! As stereotypical as possible, please!
Apparently larger than they should be for someone who is only 4"11!
I write to put into words how I see the world. Since recovering from depression the world looks so much brighter and I feel sometimes we forget how mesmerising it can be.But now I simply love the beauty of words.
I loved English lessons! I was a very dark and emotional teenager and used writing as a tool to express myself. My writing in school was very deep!
Dear Maggie and To Mr. Van Barrett were inspired by my Grandparents and the beauty of Cornwall. Evie-Me and the Seasons was created to raise money for a charity close to my heart, The PKD Charity UK. This charity has been a huge support after my daughter was diagnosed with the rare disease, ARPKD, at only four months old.
I'd make myself the villain, because I don't have the guts to do anything mean in real life!
I write from my home in Cornwall!
Cornwall is full of inspiration! From the beautiful historical monuments to the glistening seas, Cornwall has so much to offer to a writer's mind!
I love knowing that I am fulfilling a promise I made to my Grandmother many years ago. I love knowing that I am making a younger version of myself proud.
I'm a poet, how can Cornwall NOT have influenced my writing? Cornwall has beauty that can not truly be put across in words, but I try my best!
My latest book was inspired by my Grandfather's sketches. At eighty-nine years old my Grandfather suddenly found a talent for drawing. His sketches of Cornwall inspired each of the poems in my latest book. I loved working with him and allowing the world to see his art!
I would be Blossom from the PowerPuff girls, because she's strong and determined but also tiny!
Pasta, because even terrible cooks can make pasta!
My love of writing started after reading the Stardust series by Linda Chapman!
I also remember being inspired by The Never-ending Story. I wrote an entire book called "Elliot's Adventures" and created a cover out of a cardboard box, I was about six years old!
Keep writing and never let go of your inspiration!
I have a Cockapoo called Coco. She is a total softy!
I'd love to believe that I would be a turtle, but I can't swim.
I think I would be a mouse, I'd love to see how big the world looks to a mouse!
I adore Corrine Bailey Rae, my mother used to play it when I was little. I have a strong memory of my mother dancing in the kitchen in the sun whilst "Just like a star" was playing.
