So many fictional stories take place in fantastical worlds and made-up lands. They capture our imagination and extend what we believe in, but they will always remain there; in the imagination. I am currently writing an adults fiction book that explores the magic and wonder within the real world around us. Planet Earth; all its rich History, expansive and far-reaching Geography and its diverse and beautiful communities.
The great thing about it is that these places are real. They are tangible, physical and out there. I think a lot of people need to be reminded – shown even – that the world we live in, the world we have, is just as precious as any other world they read about in books or see on the big screen.
It is still a fictional story.
But it celebrates and reawakens the excitement, curiosity and marvel at our very real planet.
The book is still in the drafting process but I update my website and instagram with regular updates and sneak peaks.
