Finding Inspiration – Fiona Valpy

Sometimes inspiration is found in the smallest of things – a throwaway remark, a chance conversation, or an email arriving out of the blue. Other times it can be something bigger: an earth-shattering event; a life-changing accident; the determination to explore the world’s wildest reaches. Fiona will talk about her sources of inspiration and how they have shaped her bestselling novels.
