So do you feel you could tell us a little bit about this first manuscript and what might have inspired you to write it?

Sure.

It feels like, as you were saying earlier, the words always swirling as a writer.

You've always got something flowing through your brain.

I just felt like the words were on loop in my head and they were just going around and around in circles, taking up headspace, taking up, yeah, taking up everything.

And then COVID hit and I actually had time.

I was stuck in the house with my family.

What sort of courses have you done? And is it something you would recommend to a novice writer?
