BACKGROUND1
I'm a struggling author and editor of community magazines. I've written, illustrated & published a fantasy novel for teens/adults called 'Aggracore'. It was inspired by 12 real people - all Dorset teens. Reading it will be the best trip to another planet you'll ever take. See the reviews on amazon.co.uk where you can buy the book. CHECK MY WEBSITE www.aggracore.com I love writing. It is my life. I was educated in Surrey & my English teacher told me I was rubbish. I have a husband, 2 luvly kids & a dog, called Max. -------------------------- AGGRACORE: dragged from Earth through a tunnel of leaves, 17-year-old Zee finds himself in a surreal and frightening world where everything is black-and-white. His girlfriend, Maritza, is held hostage and Zee is told if he wants to see her again, he must lead a quest to release the hidden colours of Aggracore. To succeed, Zee has to complete eleven tasks in eleven different lands. In each land he will find one of his mates to help. But from the moment the quest begins, time is running out. With over fifty bizarre lands to cross - where nothing is as black-and-white as it seems - Zee and his friends plunge headlong into danger. Their journey is complicated by love, death and a turmoil of emotions. Ever present are the predatory and sinister Gnomonites - they don't capture prisoners, they convert them - and the last thing they want is for the colours to be returned to Aggracore. ---------------- the illustrations in Aggracore join edge to edge to make a giant mural.

Music:

Mark Knopfler, Dire Straits, Killers, Pink Floyd, Snow Patrol, Dido, Razorlight, Jimi Hendrix, Leonard Cohen (when I'm down, he gets me lower), Moths

Movies:

I like clever films. Plus movies that make me laugh or cry, or sob eg David Lean's "Brief Encounter". Get peed off with action movies and stuff bursting into flames.

Television:

Need a daily "Friends" fix. Mainly comedy. Recently stopped watching Neighbours, but am surviving the withdrawal symptoms. Love wildlife programmes and Desperate Housewives (is there a connection?). Skins is passable. Green Wing fan - more please.

Books:

"Wasted" by Mark Johnson - harrowing autobiography. "Passing Shadows" n "Helter Skelter" by Della Galton - romance. "The Curious Incident of the Dog" - brilliant, brilliant. "Finn Family Moomintroll" by Tove Jansson - fantasy at its best other than the ultimate "Aggracore" by Janine Pulford
