I cannot recall the last time I had fun daydreaming! Simply hanging out by the fire, with my spiced Christmas tea, looking at the snow falling and dreaming... I used to daydream a lot. It was my way of having fun. Paradoxically it made my life real, interesting, and beautiful. 
I would love to get my daydreaming back!

Summertime is about release for me. It is my way of preparing for a ‘new year’. It is my goal-setting time. I do my New Year resolutions in the summertime. You see, my year finishes in August and starts in September. Maybe because I was born in September. I don’t know why I live like this… I might as well put a Christmas tree on the boat.

A very good friend of mine asked me why I became a writer. She also reminded me of the fact that I studied law and not literature! All my friends are wondering why anybody would trade a legal career for a career as a struggling writer. My family was mute about my ‘new endeavor’, or better put ‘surprised to the point of no expression’. So, after a few months of constant questioning about my path, I understood I needed to be clear about my intentions. 

My own experience reading with a child? My PR team told me I should write about how to get children to read a book given that I wrote several children’s book. Honestly, I don’t have a slightest idea. On the contrary, it was a personal struggle to get my youngest to follow a bedtime story.
