Catherine Storr believes that she thinks in terms of stories. She can't remember when she didn't occupy her leisure time telling herself stories and as soon as she could write fluently she wrote them down. Her three daughters have encouraged her in this tendency.Marianne Dreams was written with the eldest in mind,Polly and the Wolf specifically for the second and the youngestwas Lucy. Now that they are all quite or nearly grown up Catherine Storr continues to write for herself.
