Maybe it’s my anthropology
background, or my fondness for history—whatever
the case may be, I love to research ancient cultures and prehistoric
times. Some of my favorite eras are the Ice Age, Precambrian, and
Jurassic. I am also a huge fan of Palaeobotany—I can only imagine what
cool giant
foliage thrived in the age of the dinosaurs and beyond!
When
I’m not
busy researching and reading about prehistoric times, I like to learn
about ancient dwellings. I am fascinated by the creativity in the
construction
of primitive shelters, whether it’s a cave, an overhanging mossy
rock slab or a tent made of bones, or hides. Isn't it amazing how
thousands of
years can pass and archeologists are still finding messages from early
man hidden in stone
recesses or painted on ceilings yet to be discovered?
Historical research
sets my imagination ablaze, gives me new ideas in my creative writing and fills me with inspiration and
hope for a fun new manuscript.
What fuels the creative
flame within you?
