When I first thought of writing about Borvo he was going to be another in a list of short stories about the magic of water and how we often feel a deep need to be by it. Seaside, river, waterfall or lake all seem to offer a link to nature and inner calm, perhaps even a feeling of belonging to something greater than we will ever be able to express adequately.  The young Borvo felt this and so when I began the process of writing his story he took over and in the end he led me on a journey that was greater than I first had in mind.  I knew where he was going but for a while didn’t know how he was going to get there. The inspiration was enhanced by an early visit to Shaftesbury Abbey while I was a student as Bristol University. The place spoke to me and so, years later, when Borvo came to me  it seemed natural to make it part of his story.

Denny Bradbury has been speaking her inspirations as a writer and what she finds a good read.  Thomas Hardy still takes pride of place as Denny’s hero, along with Jane Austen and Anthony Trollop.  When Denny was younger she was interested in Russian writers such as Leo Tolstoy who made his fame with War and Peace and Fyodor Dostoyvesky who wrote Crime and Punishment.  Charles Dickens, who in his own right is a literay titan also makes and appearence as one of Denny’s inspirations.
