Infuse your writing with a real sense of your local area with exercises from Lizzie Enfield
I’ve just been asked to talk about writing books which are set in the South of England where I live, and to discuss what made me want to write about this particular corner of the UK.
In truth, I hadn’t given it a great deal of thought when I sat down to write my novels. I was more concerned with the plot and characters and the setting seemed to follow. But having sat down to think on it, I realised the place where I live has influenced my writing in a strange subconscious way.
