The Next Big Thing is a concept brought to life by SheWrites that allows authors the opportunity to discuss their next book, whether it’s being published or not. When the wonderful writer, Natasha Head presented the idea, it seemed like serendipity as this gives me a way to introduce a project of mine that will be released soon. Below you will find the set questions I have answered in the style of an interview, which will hopefully make interesting reading.
Many thanks and gratitude to Natasha for tagging me in her post. You can read her interview here
