Not a question, but will you accept a statement? Just to say that these surprising sentences are sending me straight to "Kinnara: "I also like to handcuff humour and tragedy to the same radiator." " ... the title of my groovy novel, which is essentially a teeth-rattling thriller wrapped in a burrito of magical realism."

Thank you for your gracious comment, Elaine.
It's most definitely in my writing DNA to have humour rubbing shoulders with fear and trepidation, but the 'teeth-rattling thriller' applies to my most-recent work, The Fish That Climbed a Tree. Both novels sit in the magical realism genre and each lulls the reader into a false sense of security.
I notice that, like me, you're a fan of Gabriel García Márquez, so you'd be swimming in a similar ocean.
So kind of you to notice Kinnara and it would be interesting to see what you make of it should you take the plunge. : )
Have a fab day!

In my employ as a classical singer, I've traveled to more than 100 countries. If someone asked me the question I'm going to ask you, I'll admit, I would be hard pressed to answer. (I lived for a time in beautiful Leatherhead, in Surrey.) If you had to pull up stakes and move tomorrow, never to return, to which country would you move, and how would that move affect your writing?

Not a question but just to say I have been to Norwich a few times and absolutely loved it there. ??
