Why Scotland? I think the honest truth is because I go there every year, I'm just obsessed with the place. I think if there's a more beautiful place in the world, I've yet to find it. It's so unspoilt. It's so rugged and beautiful and perfect. And you can walk for miles and miles for hours with your dog on it. I am so much like Grady.

Every time I say something to you about the book, I think, oh gosh, yes, we have that in common too. But yeah, I think it's just this magical, magical place for me. And I've had so many happy things happen to me in Scotland that I now feel like it's just linked to my writing. You know, I finished writing Sometimes I Lie in Scotland and then I finally got an agent.

I remember being up in Scotland in a terrible snowstorm. We really shouldn't have travelled. It was so unsafe. Nobody else was on the roads. We drove for eight hours from London up to Scotland. We... I ended up arriving at this very rural house that we'd rented that was honestly so creepy and in the middle of nowhere. We went inside the house. There was no water.

The pipes were frozen because of the storm. There was no power. There was nothing. We thought maybe we should get back in the car. The car by then was totally snowed in, couldn't leave. So we thought we'll make the most of it. You know, we'll light a fire. We'll open some wine.

Yes. And then just before bedtime, there was a face in the window. And I've never screamed so loud. We were nowhere near anyone. We were in the middle of a valley. And in real life, it was just a caretaker screaming.

who came to check that we were okay because everyone thought we were crazy still going to this house when there was a terrible storm but why did they go to the window why exactly because apparently apparently he said apparently he said oh I knocked on the door and you didn't hear me but I felt like I was in a horror film um But, you know, then my imagination turned it into rock, paper, scissors.

So again, Scotland delivered this amazing story for me. And I've had so many happy experiences like that. I feel like it inspires stories in my head. I feel like I get so much writing done when I'm there. It's like the speed increases by double. So now I'm just in love with the place. So if I sit for a year writing about it, it means I get to be there even when I'm not.
