DOWN UNDER INTERVIEWS with Paul Rushworth-Brown – Episode 10
Australian Author/Interviewer Paul Rushworth-Brown chats with Author Claudia Harrison about her book LEADING ME TO YOU.
ABOUT CLAUDIA: In 2018, I started to write a book. I was an amateur writer at best. But I was also a mum of five, who had always had a day job. Like many, my dreams had been buried under a pile of bills, and a ton on housework. They were long gone and forgotten. Something, that I can’t exactly pinpoint, made me just do it. One line, turned into two. Two chapters into three. Before I knew it, I had made plans to share my first book with the world. I had discovered that a story often came to me when I didn’t put up a fight. For over five years, my characters lived with me, and one book, turned into a three-part series.
I continue to write today, currently enjoying a totally different story with new characters that I hope to share with you soon! I self-published a story called Leading Me To You. It is my first fiction novel which now has a prequel Remind Me. Leading Me To You is a story about a young woman who is living an ordinary life as a wife and mother. This is the exact life that she had imagined, but certain aspects of it have made her question if this is the right path for her. Emma’s days are quite repetitive, but on one, she is prompted to do something different. While out, she happens to bump into a man that recognises that he knows her from his childhood. He reacquaints her with her best friend from school, whom he is now married to. Emma’s friend Chloe is terminally ill and in five days, she quickly passes away. During her short time spent with Chloe, Emma’s life is whirl winded by a host of revelations. She cannot take back what she now knows no matter how hard she tries. Emma sweeps her worries neatly under the carpet, but her truth continues to show up until she cannot ignore it anymore. This woman who once wished for more, soon finds that through her heartache, loss, and betrayal, will emerge a life of connection, family, and love.
