Lately, while gathering up what needs to be done to my current book, I’ve been engaged in one of my favourite bits of the whole writing process – researching things that might be relevant to my next.

Areas I read up on for my current book included cochlear implants, radical politics and marine biology. I found that the less I knew about each subject to begin with, the more satisfying it was to research it.

As anyone who knows what I look like will confirm, the subject I’m researching now is one about which I know nothing whatsoever. 😀
