“One of the rewarding aspects of novel-writing is the opportunity it affords to travel the world. Never has this been more true for me than when I was writing and researching Sinking Islands. The premise of the novel grows from its prequel, Weather Woman, in which the protagonist, Bronwyn, has discovered she has the power to change the weather. Now, in Sinking Islands, she wants to gather a group of like-minded people from around the world to teach them her skill.”
