Interview: 1. Do you ever judge books by covers? Yes. I have a few books I’ve never read, and I bought the books because I love the covers. On the other hand, if a cover turns me off, I probably won’t buy the book. 2. In your opinion, is the cover, synopsis, or content of a book most important and why? For me, the content of the book is the most important, because the content is what creates the experience for the reader. And that’s what matters to me as an author and a reader – the experience that you get by reading a book. The cover and synopsis are important only when it comes to convincing someone to download or buy the book, so they’re just sales tools. 3. If you could live in any mythical universe other than your own, which would it be? If Atlantis existed, I’d like to go back in time and live in Atlantis. 4. Where do you go when you need to be alone? I’m a walker and a swimmer, so I’ll either go walking or swimming. 5. What inspired Gate of Air? Gate of Air belongs to the epic fantasy world of my Dragon Cycle, which is a collection of series that are related to each other. Gate of Air is Book 1 in the Dragon Gods series, which is Series #3. My intent is that anyone should be able to read any series independent of the rest of the cycle and enjoy and understand that series. But for the best experience, I recommend reading each series in order. Book 1 in Series 1 is currently free on Amazon. While I was writing Series #2, a high school student contacted me and asked why it seems like all heroines in fantasy are blond. We began a conversation, and that made me want to write a series featuring a woman with Asian heritage. Also, my characters live in a fantasy world inspired by the Norse/Viking culture, but the dragons are both European and Asian in nature. I decided to explore the reason for the presence of both types of dragons in the Dragon Gods series. 6. Do you like reading books which cover many real world issues? Yes, very much so. I read The Handmaid’s Tale when it was first published, and it terrified me because it felt like something that could really happen. Some of the best books I’ve read include 1984, Brave New World, Animal Farm, Lord of the Flies, and Fahrenheit 451. I have a degree in sociology and think of these books as sociological novels. There’s one more series that I want to write in my Dragon Cycle, and once I complete that series my goal is to start writing sociological novels. 7. Fantasy or reality? It depends. Most of time, reality. But if I’m having a hard day, fantasy. 8. Day or night? Definitely day. I’m wired to the sun and wake up just before dawn whether I want to or not. I used to fight it, but I’ve learned that life is easier when I embrace getting out of bed with the sunrise. 9. Favourite place to write? It really doesn’t matter. I’ve done some of my best work writing while riding on the commuter train or in the waiting room waiting for my car to be fixed or in an airplane terminal waiting for my flight. 10. A fact about you readers may find surprising? To research my first series, I took a course in blacksmithing. I later found out that I come from a long line of blacksmiths. One of my ancestors even had the middle name “Hammer.” The main character in my first series is a female blacksmith. I can’t help but wonder if I created her because of my genes.

Week three: all those damn hills...

Since Boxing Day is universally acknowledged by all countries that “celebrate" it, to be the most boring day of the year I was pretty excited to be in a country where the weather was nice enough to spend it outside.

We (I say we, I actually delegate 99.9% of trip planning to Marcel so I can complain when he makes bad choices) decided to go to Rotorua, which is a geothermically active area near Hamilton. As evidenced by my higher than average number of trips to Iceland, I don’t mind the stench of sulphur in the mornings so I was well up for it.

We started by visiting a park in town with some geothermal features. These were generally fenced off bubbling mudpits with the casual warning that new features could open up at any point under your feet. Nothing says relaxing stroll like the possibility of being burnt to death in a mini mud volcano.

We decided to recover with crepes, since after our binge eating of the day before I felt like I needed to get some of my 5-a-day in and what better way then banana and nutella crepes? Afterwards we drove out to Waiotapu, which is an area of lots of different geothermal features.

Don’t get me wrong, they were nice, but we are now super spoilt semi-professional travellers and these were a slightly less impressive version of the ones in Yellowstone and with way more German tourists (although Marcel didn’t seem to think the latter point was to its disadvantage). They did have some good statues for posing with though and unlike Christmas day it was boiling (clouds of hot steam floating around may have contributed to that).

Our initial plan had been to go to some thermal springs afterwards for a swim, but something about 26c air temperature makes plunging into 39c thermal springs fairly unappealing. So we headed back a bit early and had a nice evening in with Kate and Dylan.

The following day we’d planned to go to the Waitomo caves, which are other nearby New Zealand highlight... but the rest of the tourist world apparently doesn’t stick to our “casual last minute plans” strategy and everything was booked out, so we decided to do it on the way back. Marcel had also wanted to visit a kiwi house near there, so not going to lie, was quite pleased we were going to defer both of those activities to the end of our trip (where hopefully he will have lost enthusiasm for looking at more sodding birds).

Instead we went to a place called Blue Springs for a walk. The river there is beautiful and you used to be able to swim in it, but sadly not any more. We went for a 10km walk along it and I felt very healthy and virtuous. Slightly ruined by stopping for shortbread because were both so starving on the way back.

On Wednesday it was time to head off aka shovel all of our belongings which we’d spread around Kate and Dylan’s rooms back into our suitcases. We stopped off first at the post office, which I’m only mentioning because despite it being the first day they were open after the bank holidays, they still managed to get our mail to England in 3 days- go Kiwis. Almost going to forgive you for the book tax (but not).

Then we drove onto Lake Taupo. Our first stop was a cafe Marcel had expressly picked because I told him I really wanted avocado toast. I then didn’t order it but I did have some amazing corn cake things which came with avocado. I might make us divert back there. We then finally bought a phone holder to stick on the dashboard so Marcel and I could stop shouting at each other for misreading the phone screen whilst being “the navigator” (note to self, we should never become a rally driving team).

We had decided since we were spending the day in the car to take a walk along a river from the lake to Huka falls. We imagined a gently amble along the banks under the shade of the trees. For some reason this path veered from the banks to the top of the hill by the river and back down again repeatedly. 

And had almost no shade. Thank god when we got to the falls they sold ice lollies or I’m not sure we would have made it back alive (heat makes me melodramatic). We did walk past a beautiful hotel on the opposite bank with deck chairs on the banks of the river and wonder how much it might cost to stay in on the way back. A brief check of their website said from $1,750 a night. We decided perhaps not.

Our final destination for the day was Napier. When I had logged onto to book a hotel for it the previous night, there had been two left in town. We got the last room in the econolodge, which thankfully had decent reviews. The rooms appeared to be a bunch of mobile homes in the carpark but they were surprisingly nice inside and had a NZ first- aircon/heating.

For dinner we headed out for Indonesian and ate something called Rijsttafel, which is basically about a million dishes of food; alarmingly we managed to finish it?

The next day we headed down to Wellington as our plan was to get South and explore the South island at leisure. First though we decided to have a look around Napier. It’s draw is lots of art deco buildings from the 1930s. Because the whole town was destroyed by an earthquake then. Always good to be reminded you are somewhere seismically very active.

We had again decided to break our drive with a walk. As we drove towards our anticipated break, the rain pounded down against the windscreen...but just as we got close, the skies cleared! We stopped off at a place called Peka Peka beach, which gets a lot of driftwood as is incredibly long and flat. This also means it attracts fat children on quad bikes who should be walking, and more horrifyingly, a fat adult who decided the way to walk their dog was to drive the car slowly along the sand whilst the dog ran along outside. Mostly annoying as all the engines really spoilt the beach.

But the views were beautiful. And it was amusingly full of seagulls that were trying to break open shellfish by repeatedly flying up and dropping them, so it was like a line of avian yo-yos.

We got to Wellington in the early evening and decided to take a walk to the botanical gardens. This google promised us was only 750m away. It neglected to mention that about 690m of those metres were pretty much vertical up the world’s steepest hill. Luckily on our arrival at the top we found a couple walking a hugely fluffy birman cat, which they let me pet whilst I got my breath back. We then wandered back down through the botanical gardens and a cemetery, which contained a very sad Victorian grave where a family’s 5 children had all died between December 22nd and Jan 1st one year from diphtheria. Sort of felt it should be made into a mandatory visit for people who refuse to vaccinate their children.

And then some funny grave statues.

Friday dawned beautifully sunny and we headed out to explore Wellington. First via a hipster cafe where the waiter had a mullet and tache that would have made an 80s hillbilly proud, then along the dockside and to the national museum, Te Papa. Being the national museum, it was free, which is my favourite sort of museum. It’s actually very good and has a few gloriously weird things like the world’s only preserved colossal squid and some information on the extreme (welcome to the worst job in the world) efforts made to preserve the kakapo.

After a brief lunch where Marcel accidentally ordered a beer that cost more than our mains (clearly we were paying for eating with a nice view), we headed back for a brief chill out before heading up to the observatory when it got dark.

Sadly the observatory is in the botanical gardens, so we had to climb the giant hill again- only this time I demanded we took what google said was a short-cut, which turned out to be an endless flight of stairs in an overgrown forest. In near darkness. It was...cobwebby. We did eventually make it though.

The observatory has a museum (apparently Kiwis, big in astronomy because there’s no light from any neighbours, ruining things when you are looking through a telescope) and then a huge Victorian telescope which we used to look at the Orion nebula. It was pretty cool as for once for a planned activity there were incredibly clear skies and no moon- so even after we left and stumbled down the giant dark hill, we could still see loads of stars which I could identify with my “sky map” app.

The next day was New Year’s Eve. Our first order of business was stocking up on chocolate, which I may have demanded we do and then may have forgotten to check holiday opening times so we walked a mile to somewhere closed. Luckily Marcel found a great place on the way back with the world’s best hot chocolate (Bohemian Fresh Chocolate) so the morning was saved. We celebrated the last day of 2016 by driving down to the very southern tip of the North Island, to a place called Cape Palliser. This initially looked quite quick...but then mountain roads. Oh such twisty nauseating mountain roads. We did eventually get there. It is known for having the North Island’s biggest seal colony, which was our main reason for going. We initially picked a beach near the lighthouse and got out. We could only see one seal, which was apparently very itchy as it was rubbing it’s head constantly on a rock. Then we noticed once you start looking they are EVERYWHERE. They are just masters of disguise. We got engrossed at looking at one of them trying to scratch his back in a little rock pool and Marcel didn’t notice until it bellowed at him that he was standing on a rock just above another one.

Overlooking the beaches was a lighthouse on a rocky outcrop with 253 stairs up to it. Naturally Marcel demanded we went up there. I feel like this whole holiday has been climbing overly steep things. The views were nice, but the prime benefit was being able to see which bit of beach had the most seals.

There was also one “reserve” that was a little off the road on a headland we decided to stop at. We then followed the awful stench that you find accompanies seals (nice animals but their personal hygiene leaves something to be desired) and found ourselves on the rocks above a seal nursery where we could see baby seals at the adorable business of pretending to be adult seals- falling over whilst scratching themselves, starting fights etc. It was pretty hard to drag ourselves away but we didn’t really fancy the added nausea effect of the mountain roads after dark. I demanded to drive on the way back though so didn’t feel too bad.

As we got close to Wellington, Marcel decided he’d quite like to grab some beer so we stopped off at a supermarket. They asked Marcel for ID. He was thrilled and flattered (doesn’t happen that much anymore when you are in your early 30s). Elation rapidly turned to despair when they told him by law they couldn’t accept foreign driving licenses as a form of ID. Not sure many underaged teenagers would try the cover story of a mixed German and English couple in their early 30s on a holiday to NZ but who knows what the kids are into these days?

He then made me stay in the car (“you look too young") whilst he visited another bottle shop, where he got lucky and managed to leave with a six-pack.

Neither of us could really be arsed with NYE so after dinner and a Westworld (which we are slowly working our way through), we headed down to the harbour (our studio rental was about 5 minutes walk from it) to see in the new year. There were fireworks, it was weirdly windy (NZ is windy, but more than normal) and everyone was being very civilised, which was unexpected. We headed back to pack up post-fireworks as we needed to check at 9.30am the following morning for the ferry (luckily I had managed to dissuade Marcel out of the ferry that left at 8am!)

The next morning when we woke up we found the wind had most definitely NOT died down and we were looking at horizontal rain whipping past the window. Luckily I had no idea how fast knots were when I boarded the ferry or the announcement about 50 knot winds would have had been reversing straight out of there. They warned us the outer decks would be closed due to the high winds and sea conditions. Fine I thought. Sat down on a chair, ate some cinnarazine, started a podcast and fell asleep.

And woke up to the ship listing alarmingly whilst bouncing side-to-side with an announcement that no one was to get off their seat due to the size of the swells and parents were to keep hold of their children. I normally never get seasick but I was feeling pretty queasy. Not as bad as the guy next to me who started vomiting, or Marcel who turned into a miserable mess of sweat and muttered curses as he tried to hold onto breakfast. Luckily the crew had dispensed sick bags and ice cubes, which turn out to help a lot. The vomiters also kindly all crawled into the corridor and segregated themselves there (I think the loos were all occupied) so apart from the distant sound of human misery it didn’t get too bad in the main bit. We were all SUPER glad to see the South Island though.

Marcel turns out to take ages to recover from seasickness so we spent the afternoon in Picton, taking a gentle walk to a very dull reservoir (after an hour, I was expecting something more impressive I must admit). Then we went out for dinner in a French cafe and he ate about a bucket of mussels which horrified me no end, so I think we both finished the day and the week feeling slightly queasy.
