A work of fiction, it was nevertheless inspired by a period she spent travelling and staying in Australia. Mary Ann enjoys travelling and exploring different parts of the world, whenever the opportunity arises, and regards it as useful research for her writing. It also serves as a well-earned holiday. Now back in England and living in London, Mary Ann is currently writing her second novel. She also finds time to paint Impressionist-style pictures in her spare time, which she occasionally exhibits and sells.view less
