    From childhood, Moira loved to write. Throughout school she ________ writing, but pursuing it ________ was never a possibility. Her father was a doctor, her mother a nurse. “Medicine was a fairly ________ choice,” Moira says, “and writing was a career where it wasn’t a ________ that you’d have high income.”

She became a doctor but still wanted to write something. However, being a doctor was so ________ that she didn’t take up writing until her thirties. She ________ a novel – a fictionalized version of her travel in China after university. She got excellent ________. Moira sent it off to as many agents as she could find, and found one who wanted to ________ her. Suddenly, it seemed she was on her ________ as an author.

“I had one lengthy phone call with the agent where we ________ all possible areas that she thought needed ________. I worked on those and sent it back to her but didn’t hear anything.” It wasn’t long ________ Moira found another agent who was ________ if she was willing to rewrite it from the first person to the third person. She did the hard work and sent it off again. “I got back a really brief letter: ‘Thank you, I’m no longer interested.’ It was really ________.”

A decade went by, and Moira found herself eager to write again, this time ________ for her own enjoyment. She ________ herself the challenge of creating a thriller and chose Western Australia as her setting.

As she was writing just for herself, something surprising began to happen. “The characters ________ a life of their own; they started doing things I hadn’t thought about. It just ________.” One day, an agent called from Australia. Three weeks later, Moira had a publication deal. Her novel, Cicada, was published in March.
