Steinbeck on Writing
'The writer must believe that what he is doing is the most important thing in the world. And he must hold to this illusion even when he knows it is not true.' ~ John Steinbeck
About Me
Scarlett de Courcier is a researcher in Psychology & History of Religion, looking into the linguistic development of religious terms and how they affect people's understanding of their own spirituality. She also manages an international network of publishers at a new media advertising company in London, and is a freelance proofreader, translator and writer. She loves all her jobs, but when people ask what she does and she replies “I'm in advertising”, she always looks down and slightly to the right.
Scar is sickeningly happily married, and lives by the sea with her husband. In her spare time, she likes to read (anything and everything, but a lot of crime fiction), cook, blog, swim, run, sit by the sea at night, sing, write poetry, and sit down with a nice cup of tea. She speaks French, English and Romany, and she has four snakes. She is a petrolhead and is hopelessly addicted to caffeine.
