Another photo of a pueblo blanco in Andalucia. If you look really closely you can see my house! So, here’s the secret - this is where I’ve lived for the past 7 years. And it’s this town that provides the inspiration for the town of San Juan in my novel. Some people ask - ‘why did you move to Spain?’ (I’m English by the way) and I have this weird, slightly kooky answer. Believe it or not, when I was about 17 I had this vision of myself living in a white town which overlooked The Mediterranean. Ever since I can remember I’ve always wanted to be a writer and this vision seemed to fit that dream. So after a few life detours that’s basically what I did!
