Musings of a romantic suspense novelist. Friday, 25 April 2014. Do all writers have a stationery fetish that rivals a squirrel storing nuts for winter? Or is it just me? I love it. Notebooks, fountain pens, gel pens, multi-coloured post-it-notes. I can’t live without them for they are the tools of my trade.

If you have a photo of a ...
