Bookish Interview with Nicola Marsh
What books inspire you?
Thrillers. The more complex the better. I’m always in awe of authors who can write them.
What authors inspire you?
Barbara O’Neal, Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Nora Roberts, Harlan Coben
What's your favorite childhood book?
The Magic Faraway Tree by Enid Blyton
Do you like to listen to music whilst writing? If so, what sort of music?
No, I prefer silence. My day is filled with noise, usually from my kids, so to write at night in silence is bliss.
Where's your favorite writing spot?
My cosy, crammed, windowless office. It feels like home to me.
What are your essentials whilst writing?
Keyboard, PC, gorgeous hardcover notebooks, colored pens, my ideas.
Do you have any writing tips for someone who is just starting out?
Write, write, then write some more. Writing is a craft honed by doing. And read widely in the genre you’re targeting.
What's the last book you read?
In the Midnight Rain by Ruth Wind (Barbara O’Neal’s older pen name.) I love all her books. Lush and evocative and truly wonderful.
What's the last book you bought?
Out of Line by Jen McLaughlin
Apart from being an author, what's your dream job?
Travel agent.
What's the one question you'd love to be asked but never have?
‘Can I offer you a five million dollar advance?’
Thanks for answering my Bookish questions Nicola, always love to hear that other people write in gorgeous hardcover notebooks as I have a collection that will last me years!
