The lovely Amanda from Mandibelle16 sent me some really interesting interview questions a little while ago for a new feature she’s running on her site.
I’m not really a big fan of talking about myself but, after reading a brilliant interview she conducted with Jacqueline Oby-Ikocha, I was keen to participate.
My interview has just gone live. If you’re interested, please follow the link to Amanda’s site. It is full of great poetry and many other interesting posts.
