I got introduced to audiobooks because of having a baby.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've never listened to any of my audiobooks, but I'm very, very happy that they've received such excellent feedback from readers!
Yes, I've listened to just a few audiobooks - but hope to listen to more. I've wanted to investigate how my own books sound in this format and find the experience of listening, and not reading, quite fascinating.
I didn't start working on children's books until I got a job at a book warehouse on the children's floor. When I started reading some of the books, I was so impressed.
The audiobooks I buy are never first-time reads - only rereadings of books I know well that I find intoxicating.
When I was pregnant, I wanted to take some time off from acting, but I still needed a creative outlet for myself. My first two books were created during my pregnancies and after giving birth to my first child.
Storybooks were always a big part of my imagination, and my childhood and adolescence.
Completing a book, it's a little like having a baby.
I did have a child, and I was reading a lot of picture books to her, but at the same time writing a children's book was something that I'd been wanting to do for many years, pretty much since the start of my career.
I looooove cookbooks. I cook a lot when I'm pregnant.
I started listening to music when I wrote when I had three sons at home.
