She had to rely on state benefits and spent much of her time writing in a café full of people hustling and bustling, with her daughter sleeping in the pram next to her.

She was even so poor that she couldn’t afford a computer or a typewriter. She didn’t even have the cost to photocopy her 90,00-word novel to send it to publishers. She didn’t give up or lost hope, in the contrary, she typed out manually each version to send to 12 publishers, and she penned her ideas on a spare scraps of paper and tissues.

She said once “By every usual standard, I was the BIGGEST FAILURE I knew”
