...Writing fantasy and living the reality of a tropical environmentalist
About Me
- Glenda Larke
- Malaysia
- My life has been described by one of my editors as “impossibly exotic” – although really it is not my life, but me, that’s the exotic. I’m the uprooted plant, the exotic who doesn’t belong, always living in someone else’s backyard...
An Australian living in Malaysia. Writer, traveler, environmentalist. Author of The Isles of Glory trilogy (The Aware, Gilfeather, The Tainted); The Mirage Makers trilogy (Heart of the Mirage, The Shadow of Tyr, Song of the Shiver Barrens) and, writing as Glenda Noramly, a stand-alone book Havenstar.
The latest trilogy is called The Watergivers in Australia and the Stormlord trilogy elsewhere. Book One, THE LAST STORMLORD, is already out; Book Two, STORMLORD RISING, is out in US and Australia and will come out in UK at the beginning of November 2010; Book Three, STORMLORD'S EXILE, will be out in all three countries in August 2011, or earlier.

I'm in London
And I just posted a blog over at Borders here on the subject of writing characters.
Today is the Grand National in UK, so of course, when there was a horse starting with the name "Character Building", who could resist a flutter?
Sigh.
The best thing I can say is the horse finished the race, which is far from a guarantee in a jump event.
Most of the day we spent just walking the streets in glorious Spring weather. I'm staying in Soho, just off Oxford St, so close to everything.

if you get a chance I always love visiting Hampton Court :)
Especially when all the bluebells are out. I've just read Wolf Hall too...
I was thinking it looked a lot cleaner these days. You can actually see what the buildings look like. Don't forget to go to the Soho food market either.
Sorry your gee gee didn't win for you.
It's a lovely time of year to be in England.
