Featured Story of the Month for November 2009 - If Tomorrow Never Comes
Carter-Orange:
1) What made you decide to write a story about this time period and did you need to do a lot of research about it?
I just fancied writing something different. I've seen a lot of films set in that era, and I find it interesting and sad at the same time what people had to go through. My Grandad also fought in WW2 and was at Dunkirk and used to tell us all his war stories. He also married my Nan during the war and I thought that was romantic, the way they married on impulse, after only knowing each other a short time. So my only research so far has been from what I remember from his stories and from films I've seen over the years.
2) Most of us are familiar with the Carter part of your SN but tell us a little more about the Orange part and which of those two do you find it easier to write?
The Orange part of my SN is Jason Orange from the band Take That, not sure how big they are over in America, but they are really successful here and I've liked him since I was a teenager (long time ago!). I like writing either, and I've probably written just as many Take That stories as I have BSB stories.
mare:
What's your favorite chapter in your story? And do you have any favorite lines or scenes that you'd like to share?
Carter-Orange:
I think I'd have to re-read it before I could quote anything from it! I think my favourite part so far would have to be where they are on top of the hill and the air raid siren goes off and Nick holds her close to him protectively *sighs* lol.
mare:
wow, this month flew by! Now is the time for any last comments and questions for Stephanie about her story.
