An Interview with Vanessa Horn

The Letterpress Project has asked authors and illustrators to think about what has inspired them as artists, what their favourite books are and how they relate to their audience - we've also asked them if they themselves are book collectors.

We are delighted to present an exclusive interview with an author new to the children's book world, Vanessa Horn. 

Vanessa is an author based in Havant, Hampshire. Having previously written short fiction for people her own age, she has now turned her hand to writing for children — WAAAAAA! is Vanessa’s first published children’s picture book.

When she’s not writing books, Vanessa can either be found teaching or people watching, the latter being a huge source of inspiration for her.
