About me

Photograph by David Mordey

My name is Sara Crowe. I’m a writer and photographer, represented by Joanna Swainson at the Hardman and Swainson Literary Agency. My YA novel Bone Jack will be published by Andersen Press/Random House in 2014.

I’m currently travelling around Britain in a big van for a year and working on my next book.

    • The most difficult were probably my fear of heights and my rubbish one-handed typing, because they involve my being useless at certain things.

      The easiest – well, all the rest really, I guess!

  1. Your blog has gone very quiet. Are you on a huge project at the moment? I’m only posting once ever 5 days or so. I am on a mission to make my university application look so marvellous they can’t turn me down. I did a first draft of my Personal Statement a couple of days ago. It needs a little polish but it is looking quite tasty already. Hope you are well.

    • Hi GB – I’m fine thanks, just in the process of selling my house so endlessly decorating, tidying and cleaning for prospective buyer viewings. I’ve got a half-written blog entry sitting in my dashboard waiting to be finished – will try to get it done in the next couple of days.

      • I think I might apply for a job working for the blog inactivity police! Hope the viewings go well. When we put our house on the market last we had some very interesting people come round. Including a woman who checked the toilet for correct flushing three times.

  2. Also I really need to do a 20 things you didn’t know about me page. Also I have an old plate box camera. The shutter is a bit unreliable but I managed to slide in to the glass plate holders some carefully cut sheets of photographic paper. I got some images. In negative of course but photoshop sorted that out. I’m going to stop typing now before I hijack your blog.

    • Great! Will you post the images to your blog? Sheet film is also good in a plate camera though more of a faff than photographic paper. My plate camera is all boxed up to go into storage :(

      • Babies in boxes :( I tend not to post my photography to my blog, except as a featured image. I am getting less structured and uptight about what I post as time goes on – which is a good thing.
