I was very honoured to be the first guest on my chum Dan Alatorre‘s new show, Writer Rants, to talk about PorterGirl books First Lady Of The Keys and The Vanishing Lord. Here are some edited highlights; whilst almost two hours of Daniel talking about how great I am might be good for my ego, no one really wants to listen to that. But what you might want to listen to, however, are insights into how I built up the Old College world and developed the characters, the truth about what really happened at Cambridge University and how I fell in love at first sight at the Royal Opera House…

😎Yeah! I’ll be on the beach in Biarritz reading while Hubby and his forearms will be surfing. The best type of holiday all round. Enjoy your summer too Lucy, writing and writing and writing, I guess.
That sounds super! Yes, much writing this summer but I will be sure to find a little time to relax and enjoy the weather. Enjoy!
I do so like the photos! I think a series would be fantastic. There’s enough to keep one coming back each week to see what happens —
I hope so, it certainly seems to be the general feeling. Watch this space – you will be the first to know if anything develops!
