S3 E4 - Santa Montefiore

From her website:

Since I could first hold a pencil I have been writing stories. It was my most enjoyable hobby and one I never expected would become a career in adulthood. I am so lucky to do something I adore and luckier still that you, my readers, enable me to do it. For that I am incredibly grateful.

Over the last four decades my love of storytelling has never changed, the only thing that has changed is my audience (once only me), which now includes you! I hope to carry you away to sunnier shores, while at the same time to remind you of all that is wonderful about England. Above all, my novels are about love – not just romantic love, but Love with a capital L, because when you boil life down to its essence, love is what you’ll find. I hope to sweep you away, to make you laugh and cry in equal measure, but most of all to make it possible for you to escape for a while.

Key Points of the Episode:

• How her extraordinary childhood spiritual experiences now influence her writing.
• The complex and enthralling (yet hard to plot) storyline of her new book.
• How we all lose (but can relatively easily regain) our psychic ability.
• How she was visited by her sister (who was not alive) - seriously!
• How people many times come round to the idea.
• Her ghastly book tours!
• How she came back from the ghastly book tours- and how you need to be a rock star to break America!
• How she never believed she would have 34 books in her!
• Her key to a 34 year marriage!
