Q&A with Annabel Fanning

 

 What advice do you have for any aspiring author?

 

AF: Enjoy the journey and believe in yourself.

 

 Which character from She do you relate to the most and why?

 

AF: I relate to Gemima the most. We have very similar ways of mentally processing information. Both a bit quirky, and her humour is definitely modelled after my own. So is Logan's for that matter!

.Do you have plans to write any more books in the near future?

 

AF: Yes, I'm writing SHE part 2, which will be released next year. After that I'll just see where life takes me.

 What inspired you to write this book?

 

AF: I had written in several other genres and I was curious about writing erotica. I was working as a freelance editor on a website and came across a lot of requests for ghostwriters of erotica - this got me curious. I decided I would try writing a short story. My short story turned in SHE - over 114K words long!

What more can you tell us about She that you wont learn from a synopsis? 

AF: It's funny! I think the romance and erotica are a given, but what you may not know is that the novel is written in first person pov by Gemima who shares her quirky/wayward/often-inappropriate thoughts through internal-monologue - the way we all talk to ourselves. She also has a habit of blurting out these humours musings without thinking, which makes for several funny moments. Also, it's an HEA - if you're after angst, SHE is not for you.

 What is one random fact about yourself?

 

AF: I wrote a lot of SHE whilst staying with a friend of mine. She has a "farm" about an hour out of Perth city in Australia. I grew up in the countryside in Scotland, so sometimes I like to leave the city (where I live in a high-rise) and go to the farm to put my feet on the dirt and the grass. I spent about a month there earlier this year, writing about love, sex and Paris.

Author Bio

I'm sort of international in terms of my parents' mixed-nationalities and where I've lived, but I think of myself as British. I spent my childhood in an idyllic Scottish country town. Now I live in Perth, Western Australia.
The idea for SHE came to me at the beginning of this year. I was working on a website as a freelance editor and I saw several posts about writers required for short erotic stories. My curiosity was sparked!!
I wrote the first two pages of SHE and something clicked within me. I knew I wanted to (had to) keep writing it and a plot formed in my mind soon after.
Because this was my first piece of erotic writing I had anticipated that SHE would be a short story, but once these characters got going they could not keep their hands off of each other
Very soon I surpassed the 100k mark and I had so much I still wanted to write, and so decided to cut SHE in Parts 1 & 2.
I published SHE part 1 a few weeks ago (have you got your copy yet?) Part 2 will follow next year.
