Keep an eye out for this one 👀
Meet the Co Down author whose successful first novel set in Northern Ireland could appear on our screens after being optioned for TV.
She said: "I knew I wanted to do that professionally, even then, and there was never a backup plan so it’s really lucky that it’s starting to work out for me. Before 'She and I', Hannah had written short stories almost exclusively so turning her hand to the novel form was something she found "quite challenging" at the start but as soon as she got into the swing of it the rest "seemed to flow".
Hannah said: "This was an idea that I’d had in my head for maybe five years before I actually put pen to paper. I felt like I knew the girls so well, and that was maybe why the words flowed well for this one. "I love NI and everything about it, I’d never want to live anywhere else, so for me, I had to put the girls here," she continued.
The rights were optioned about a year before the book was officially published so Hannah said she had a while to digest it before even seeing her book on a shelf.
