MY WRITING DAY
Hannah Fielding is one of the UK’s leading romance authors and admits to being a disciplined writer, working from Monday to Friday. ‘And at week-ends, when I can get away with it,’ she says. Hannah has been doing this for six years now, ever since she signed a publishing contract for her debut novel.
‘For years before that, I yearned to write full time, but my family’s needs came first, along with my property business but, once my children had flown the nest and my company was more or less running itself, I was able to give writing my full attention. I treat it as a job, which it is not… it’s my life.’ Hannah follows a set structure for her day.
