Featured Interview With Victoria A. Morton
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I grew up in the UK in the Midlands, and I was raised in a family of artists, musicians and authors, we are a quirky bunch!
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
I received my first box set of Beatrix Potter books as a child and that is when my fascination with storybooks began. I only really started putting my ideas on paper when I was in my 30s when I began a career as a Primary School Teacher. I think I could see the direct impact stories could have on children, and I wanted to be a part of that, plus I love drawing and creating the illustrations!
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
I personally love a good romantic comedy, Jenny Colgan, Cecilia Ahern and Sophie Kinsella come to mind. When it comes to my own writing, my nephews and my school children inspire me.
Tell us a little about your latest book?
Hugo’s Adventure was released last month and is inspired by my 1 yr old Nephew who loves to adventure! He got me thinking about who he might want to be when he grows up. So the story is about a mouse who explores who he wants to be when he is older.
