My childhood dream was to study mechanical engineering. After reading ‘The Mysterious Island’ - which I read 25 times as a boy - I thought that was the best thing a person could do. The engineer in the book knows mechanics and physics, and he creates a whole way of life on the island out of nothing. I wanted to be like that Picture Quote #1

As a kid, I didn’t need to be convinced the future promised peril and oppression, so when I started thinking up the middle-grade science fiction novel that became ‘The Boy at the End of the World,’ it seemed only natural to build the story around a dark vision of the future.

At university - when I was supposed to be studying biochemistry - I had tried to write a children’s book about a boy and a wolf cub, and there was a paragraph in that which was from the wolf’s point of view Picture Quote #1
