Interview With Lisa Fulham:
1. Can you tell us a little
about your books?
LF: I have a standalone
novella called Out on Business, a poetry book based on a winter theme
called Words of a Season and an anthology called Delicious Just
Desserts which includes Out on Business and is available in print as
well as an ebook.
2. Do you have a favorite
character to write about?
LF: Every story I’ve
written so far has one thing in common, there’s always a sense of
self discovery and exploration. I really enjoy allowing my characters
to face insecurities or desires they have and see them work through
them. One of my favourite characters I’ve written is a woman named
Samantha in the story Lust through a Lens(included in DJD). I poured
a lot into her including a lot of my own insecurities and it was nice
to see her overcome certain fears.
3. What do you do when you
are not writing?
LF: I’m always on social
media as I’m a social media manager so the internet is my life.
Other than that I’m a mum, wife, friend, reader and blogger. As you
can see, I’m a pretty busy bee.
4. Do you ever experience
writer’s block?
LF: All. The. Time. Being a
writer is sometimes the hardest thing you can do in my opinion. It’s
a path filled with self doubt, second guessing and standing on the
precipice of throwing in the towel and pressing the ever taunting
delete button, but then I’ll be doing something completely
unrelated to writing and inspiration will just hit me in the face and
I carry on.
5. Do you work with an
outline, or just write?
LF: I tend to just write
with and ever expanding plan alongside. I’ll think of things I want
to happen later in the story and jot down bits of dialog or the
outline to a character which I can go back to when the time is right.
6. When did you know you
wanted to write a book?
LF: I’ve wanted to be a
writer since I was fifteen, but I waited until I was thirty before I
tried to follow my dream and it wasn’t until I was thirty-one I
actually wrote a book. It’s quite a long time to wait to follow
your dreams and I wouldn’t recommend it; life is too short.
7. What was the last book
you read?
I’ve just finished the
Everything trilogy by KL Shandwick and loved it. She’s a great
story teller. I’m currently reading Max Colton’s Road to
Wonderland by author H A Robinson which came out on the 10th
of July and I have to say I’m bloody loving it and highly recommend
it to anyone and everyone.
8. Are you attending any
book signing events this year?
LF: I did attend the
Orchard Book Club signing hosted by Hourglass Events in Peterborough
earlier this year as a signing author and I attended the Tattooed Bad
Boys in York as a reader; that was interesting to see it from the
other side of the table. I won’t be signing again now until the
Hourglass signing in Leeds next year which I cannot wait for and I
have some great swag ideas, some great surprises for anyone who
pre-orders book from me closer to the time.
9. What writing projects
are you currently working on?
I’m currently working on
a book called A Flash of Discovery which follows Sophia St Clair
during her gap year. Here is the unedited preface
Preface
When I woke up this morning
I never expected my day to end up here. In fact, if someone had told
me over my sugar puffs this is where I’d be at four-thirty AM, I’d
have suggested they seek medical assistance. The thing is, now I’m
here, it feels as though I’m finally where I belong. Life’s funny
that way; with all its little surprises.
I suppose I should tell you
a little about myself before I share my day with you, after all;
you’d at least want someone’s name before you woke-up in bed with
them naked . . . wouldn’t you?
The trick is to tell you
about myself without sounding like I’m either filling out a dating
website profile or a job application.
I’m
Sophia, I’m twenty years old and I guess the thing people notice
about me most is the fact I come from money. When I say money, I’m
talking sixth generation old
money. Well half of me comes from that life; my mum comes from a
normal, run of the mill family. Nan and Pops both worked hard their
whole lives to give their daughter the things in life they never had
growing-up. Grandma and Pappy are where the money comes from.
To say
they are the biggest snobs I’ve ever had to endure would be an
understatement of epic proportions. The differences between times
spent with my different grandparents are opposite ends of the
normality spectrum. From high society living to homemade Christmas
presents, one thing’s for sure, I definitely had an interesting
start in life. Mum and Dad met when they took a gap year before
starting university to go backpacking in the Far East. They fell in
love in the shadows of the Himalayas. Grandma was not impressed when
Dad came home in love with someone not
from an upper class bloodline and announced they were getting married
while still in University. Apparently she was in therapy for over a
year trying to cope with the stress and shame of it all, though of
course she told her friends she had simply been suffering from
migraines when they asked why she had been shying away from social
gatherings by all accounts.
The only reason she didn’t
cut Dad off completely was because Mum offered to sign a prenuptial
agreement stating if the marriage ended she didn’t want a penny.
She also added the reason was because any money from Grandma’s
family would be tainted with her sour soul, which I think is pretty
funny considering it ended up in a binding legal document.
The reason I’m telling
you this is to explain the two worlds I’m from. Mum has always kept
me grounded and for as long as I can remember I’ve spent half my
holidays with Nan and Pops. They showed me the value of a good heart
far outweighs the value of a bank balance. How my Dad turned out to
be as down to earth and brilliant as he is–considering he grew up
in the coldest house I’ve ever known—is beyond me.
Don’t get me wrong, we’re
no tree huggers and I went to the best private schools in the
country, but I learnt the rich way of living is not how life is
enriched.
So that’s a little about
my upbringing and background, but I want to tell you about the
journey which lead me to where I am now.
A group of friends and I
decided to take a year off between leaving college and starting
University. They planned to sail the world on their Daddies yachts,
catching a suntan and probably herpes along with a whole other host
of STD’s in the process. That scene has never been for me and even
though they begged me to go with them, I knew it wasn’t how I
wanted to spend a year of my life. This caused a huge row with my
boyfriend Henry and was the ultimate reason we broke up. If I’m
honest with myself I would have ended things before university no
matter what. Henry was a boy my Grandmother had set me up with, we
went to the same schools and his bloodline was as old as ours–a
perfect match in Gran’s eyes, but we were polar opposites. He liked
clubbing and flashing his cash and ‘woman’ as he tried to call
me, around. Our Grandparents were more upset then either of us when
things ended and I’m pretty sure he’d been shagging around behind
my back the whole time we’d been together. My only regret about the
whole thing was sleeping with him. I knew I didn’t love him, but I
figured I should get the deed over with and I did, quickly. Either
sex wasn’t as good as people made it out to be or Henry was a
little too eager for the post-coital cigarette he seemed to enjoy
more than he had being intimate with me.
Truth
is, I can barley handle a long weekend of the scene my friends live
for when I can’t think of a plausible excuse to get myself out of
it. So the thought of spending a whole year doing nothing of
substance made me feel physically queasy. Club hopping wearing heels
higher than the Empire State building, skirts which looked nothing
more than thick belts and the way they all tried to big it up as
though they were all gangsta
and appearing in a Tupac video just wasn’t for me and on the nights
I was forced to tag along I hated almost every minute of it.
Instead I decided to split
my year into four very different adventures.
