Hear about her steps to becoming an author and how her search for stories about female romantic love prompted her to write her own young adult fantasy. Katherine also recommends some other titles dealing with same sex relationships. We discuss the importance of real landscapes in fantasy worldbuilding – and then decide where it is best to be a lighthouse keeper, in honour of the central image in her first novel. </span></p>
