When you are writing do you use any celebrities or people you know as inspiration? Little do the B&B guests know as they eat their breakfast what a mess of research books and notes litter the room behind the closed door in the dining room! Sometimes when I can’t sleep I write at silly hours of the night and get freezing cold doing it! I have what I call my ‘cave’ to write in – a little room at the back of the house with no view to distract me, unless you consider a row of dustbins and the oil tank as a picturesque scene. However, I do tend to spend the morning and most of the afternoon writing if I can, although we also run a B & B in our farmhouse in East Lothian, so there are often bathrooms to clean and beds to make. Well, today I’ll start by thanking you for inviting me to tell you about myself, although I would far rather tell you about Catherine de Valois, who is the central character in The Agincourt Bride, since I assure you that the life of a princess in the French court in the early 1400s is far more exciting than the life of this novelist today, which of course is why I chose to write about her. We recently spoke to Joanna Hickson, author of T he Agincourt Bride and she kindly answered a few questions for our Novelicious readers.Ĭan you tell us about your average writing day?
