Janessa Mackinnon asked Perdita Cargill:

hi, do you and your daughter have skills to writing your novels? any tips or styles of writing im so interested your books are lovely, i just entered your giveaway, so hoping to win! but yeah do you guys have skills or tips i could possibly use in the future?

Perdita Cargill Hi Janessa! I'm so sorry I didn't notice this message. Thank you! Well, I guess that our biggest tip would be to have fun along the way. We couldn't write together unless we had lots of laughter. We don't write side by side though - we both nee dour own space and we email each other drafts (sometimes even if we're in the same house!). I think if you're collaborating with someone play to your strengths too - so, for example, Hon is super good at dialogue but really bad at proofing and spelling (she's dyslexic) so I tend to take control of those bits. Anyway hope you enjoy the books and have a fab 2017! Perdita x
