POETRY
BANG SAID THE GUN
the other woman by Sandie Jones
Inspiration can strike anywhere.
Sandie Jones' mother-in-law from
hell was concocted by horror
stories regaled over coffee...
CONGRATS ON THE BOOK.
WHERE DID YOU GET THE IDEA?
The seed was sown by talking to
friends and acquaintances who
all seemed to have a story about
their mother-in-law. Pammie
is an exaggeration of all those
tales told over coffee.
HOW DID IT COME ABOUT?
I sent the first three chapters off
to five agents, who all requested
the full manuscript. I tried not to
get too excited, and when three
of them asked to meet, I honestly
thought it was a wind-up!
Yorkshire firebrand Rob
Auton is always a
must-watch, whether he's
doing stand-up or spoken
word.Until 15 Oct; Soho
Theatre; sohotheatre.com
WHAT COMPELLED YOU TO
WRITE A BOOK?
It's something I dreamed of, but
came up with every excuse not to
try. In the end, I wrote it without
telling anyone. I never intended
to find myself in this position.
WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE
TO AN ASPIRING NOVELLIST?
Just start! It sounds simple, but is
the hardest thing to do. And don't
set limitations, like writing in a
certain place or time. I wrote The
Other Woman in waiting rooms
and on public transport.
WHAT'S NEXT?
Book no2 is in the making! It's a
thriller, exploring secrets and lies
hidden within a normal family...
