Hi Margaret! As many have said, thank you very much for doing this Q&A.
I am a fan of fantasy, sci fi and dystopian settings in particular, and thought you might find some amusement in the fact that Oryx and Crake was the first book where my desire to share the story outweighed my obsession with clean corners and unbent spines enough for me to brave lending it to my partner! It survived unharmed and I still love that book.
I would love to become an author in some capacity, and I have a particular passion for Children's Fantasy, but I am plagued by self-confidence issues which mean I am scared to even start... It must be a fairly typical question, but do you have any advice for simply enjoying writing and ignoring self-doubt?
