All the books I have written have been one book, from the beginning. The first poem I ever wrote, about loss, when I was five years old, expressed the themes of everything I would ever write.
“The thing that gets clearer and clearer as you get older is to keep developing. As long as they don’t like what you’re doing now, they’ll love it in 20 years time, just the way they’re now loving what you did 20 years ago.”
