When given the opportunity to write professionally, Carol grabbed it, as she told The Sunday Post: “A couple of years ago I was approached by a publishing agent. It was not the first time but it was the right time.
He asked me if I would be interested in writing about myself, fiction or the weather. I thought I’d like to try my hand at fiction. Better to have tried and failed than not to have tried at all. And that’s how I got into it. I loved it. I’d forgotten the passion I had for it.”
