Emily Gravett Revealed

Emily Gravett Q. What is your motto or maxim? A. Why stay between the lines? Q. What do you regret most? A. I only regret one thing in my life, but it's a secret! Q. How would you describe perfect happiness? A. For me perfect happiness a day with my family after finishing (and being pleased with) a book, but having had an idea of what to start working on next. It also involves roast potatoes, red wine, well cut lawns and my dog. Q. If you could be anywhere in the world right now, where would you choose to be? A. Here at home in my studio, but with maybe another cup of tea. Q. What is your favorite occupation, when you’re not writing? A. In the Summer I love mowing the lawn. I even got rid an my electric mower because I love the sound my push along makes. In the winter I like to bake cakes. Learn more about Emily Gravett
