These days her children are all grown up and she has more time to apply herself to her writing.A while back she began composing a short story for a national competition. She never got round to submitting the entry because she quickly realised her character, Sarah, deserved much more attention than the permitted two thousand wordsAlison describes herself as a private person who feels comfortable spending time in her own company. Yet she still looks forward the occasional evening with her family and closest friends. She prefers the countryside to the city and loves walking alone in the hills and along the coast.Her passion for writing can sometimes be all consuming. Sitting at her desk she often becomes so absorbed in her stories and characters that she loses all sense of the present. Many a time, she admits to putting down her pen and gasping in surprise at the view through her window. On a hot summer's day, she says she might easily expect to see snow on the ground like it was in the chapter she had just written.Alison is a big Brontë fan. Her favourite book is Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë.vizualizați mai puține
