I wrote two versions of a young adult story originally called The Star of the Sea, then changed it to The Blue Curse, then to Stella Maris, but I never published it (although I intend to rewrite it next year and finally get it out there). I got back into fiction writing in my thirties. I didn’t end up getting back into it until I went to Auckland University in my mid twenties, where my writing largely centred round Art History and Italian Studies. I started reading them about a month ago (since I’m turning them into a book) and was greatly amused to find story ideas in there, though not very good ones, I must say.Īfter school I moved away from writing, and headed into the field of art (as a graphic designer and fine artist). I’ve always loved to write, but recently found out through my teenage diaries that I wanted to be an author as far back as the eighties. Can you tell us a bit about your background as a writer? Hi, Marita! Welcome to Susan Finlay Writes blog site. I’d like to introduce you to the fifty-first interviewee in my ‘Meet the Author’ series.
