Many thanks to Niamh Clune On the Plum Tree for giving me the opportunity to introduce myself…..
A favourite of Plum Tree Books is Shawn MacKenzie. You might all know her for her great editorial posts. But did you know, she is an expert on dragons and a brilliant writer in her own right? Shawn is no ordinary writer of prose. She crafts sentences, weaving them with natural flair whilst introducing the unusual. Her brilliance of mind and wit shines through everything she does. Great to have you here, Shawn.

Oh I just love this post. I have always written from the third person, and for this reason am now writing from the first person. It is such a different experience. What you can’t say or know about someone else is a really interesting challenge and definitely takes a story along a completely unexpected route and so much must be inferred. Brava Shawn…another great post!
