Very interesting, not least when you said about how you are shy (like me) and at school chosen last for sport (again, like me) - funny how years later all that school stuff just doesn't matter one iota, but at the time it can be quite upsetting.

Please let us know when you get published - as you say, you are a storyteller. Your stories aren't bogged down in extraneous detail, but move along at just the right pace. I'd love to read a published novel! I wish I had a talent for putting pen to paper. In my head when I'm going home on the train I write what sounds (to me :) rather good stories, but as soon as I try and write them, they end up just uninspired, dead things.

I hope to do get to live in NZ - my sister lives in Wellington and it's such a beautiful place - not too big, nor too small.

Thank you for the link. It was very interesting to read like the person behind the name eriador117 thinks, feels and lives.
Even if I cannot present myself only for the writing to live, nevertheless, I admire your determination these way of life to hit and to go successfully.
I think your husband must love you likewise very much if one reads his support for you.
Unfortunately, I have still read none of your books, however, I read your fanfiction very much with pleasure. ( Topically I enjoy your Silver and Gold novel. And yes, I know, I should leave on occasion a comment. I promise improvement.)
By the way....Welcome to club. I am addicted for many years in Sims. Beside reading my second passion.
As the last, thanks for download to Reading the Writer. I am glad on it to get to know a little the side of the autor Annette Gisby.

What a nice interview! Good thing there is a link to a bit of your work *went to read it*

Wonderful interview!
It's great to get to know a bit more about you. New Zealand is N°1 on my list of places to see. I love your fanfic and also read Shadow of the Rose and Silent Scream, which I couldn't put down until I finished reading.

What a lovely interview- you sound smashing!. I hope that someday I find the time to read one of your books as your fan fic is lovely...real life huh- just gets in the way of reading time :)
