I listen to archival and historic recordings. I love watching singers. I learned a lot from watching videos.
I started writing books for children because I could illustrate them myself and because, in my innocence, I thought they'd be easier.
People always ask me if I could live in any other era what would it be, and I tell them none! I feel so lucky to live in an age where technology has changed and continues to change and make life so much more exciting. It keeps everyone young and constantly learning new things.
