I love to get lost in my writing and allow the characters to take over. I like silence, tea and a good internet blocker. Tell us a bit about your writing process.While it deals with the huge issues of homelessness and gentrification, it’s really about aspirations and who gets to have them. I wanted to write something which shows how easily a normal family could end up homeless. My new novel These Streets is a family drama set against the UK’s housing crisis. My novels ha ve been longlisted for the Women’s Prize for Fiction and Royal Society of Literature Ondaatje Prize. My second novel Homecoming is a love story about university friends and is partly set in Kenya. My debut novel Nightingale Point follows a group of characters living in an east London tower block on the day of a plane crash. What have you written, past and present?.
