Where it all began for me – a love of books and storytelling, from my childhood through to today. Reading is a continued source of inspiration for my creative writing, travel journalism and copywriting.
Books I've Loved: The Bartimaeus Trilogy by Jonathon Stroud
The story is told through the alternate viewpoints of Nathaniel and Bartimaeus, but it’s the witty and sarcastic djinn who really steals the show. Fantasy is usually best known for its plot – and there is an abundance of plot in this trilogy – but it was the character that really drew me into this world and story.
