This is the first of my new ‘character interviews’, where I’ll pose some questions to a character in one of my novels.

First up we have Cara, from THE LIFE MAKEOVER CLUB!

Name: Cara Collins

Age: 26

Occupation: Mother of three, wife of one (until Channing Tatum realises he loves me), taxi driver, personal shopper, chef, room service attendant, nurse, housekeeper (a bad one), artist (unpaid as yet), magician (I’m great at making chocolates disappear), human vending machine up until six months ago, and… what am I forgetting? Did I say I’m a mother?

1. What do you like to do in your spare time?

If I ever get any I’ll let you know.

2. What’s your favourite part of the day?

When I’m so fast asleep not even an earthquake could wake me up. No seriously, I love it when I snuggle with my kids before bed. It makes it all worthwhile. Sometimes.

3. What do you think is the hardest part of being a mother?

When you’re awake.

4. What do you do before going to bed each night?

I write my ‘To Do List’ (which can take a while), and my ‘Done List’ (which usually takes me about fourteen seconds), and transfer the ‘not yet completed’ items from the previous day’s To Do List to the new To Do List, and then add ‘Notepad’ to the Shopping List because I’ve run out of room on the To Do List. Then my son wakes up and after attending to him I forget what I was about to write on the new To Do List and then I usually pass out with the pen in my hand.

5. What scares you most in life?

Not having my husband and kids around. I know I complain sometimes, but really, they are my world and I love them more than life itself.

Thank you, Cara, for taking time out of your busy schedule.

A little birdie told me your seven-year-old daughter, Lily ,will be joining us for an interview on Friday!

Yes, that’s right. God help me.

Do you have any questions for Cara? If so, leave a comment! 🙂
