Fancy a quick peek inside the cupboard/office where I do my writing? Go on then…
As the Crawley Observer recently revealed, much of my debut novel, The Unexpected Vacation of George Thring, was written inside a cupboard that I converted into a tiny office. My fiancee nicknamed the ‘Harry Potter cupboard’. So I thought I’d throw up a few pics to show that, yes… it really is a tiny office… inside a cupboard…
I like to keep the coats hanging up inside the door for authenticity. Also, if I didn’t, we’d have nowhere to keep them.
As you can see, it’s pretty cramped. The desk only just fits in. But it’s big enough to work. And Shakespeare keeps a watchful eye on me.
And here are all the ideas for the next book – stuck to the wall with Post-it notes – kind of like a storyboard.
