As far as coincidences while I was writing Little Paradise - I might have to think about that because so many things happened during the long drawn out process especially because it was about family history. One thing that stood out very clearly though was that for the whole year and a half that I was writing the book I didn't have one dream. I began dreaming again the very day I sent the manuscript to Penguin. Strange. The drawing of the boy in the toilet was an illustration I did for The Pearl of Tiger Bay.

Did you draw it? I love stories like this but I think you're right - to be safe don't listen to the news! Did any coincidences happen while you were writing Little Paradise?
