Eliza Doolittle

As a writer, I try to do different things, but I'm not going to become a darker artist or turn into Radiohead overnight. I don't think that's my style.

I always loved singing. I was always trying to sing in school plays. I was in every one I could be in.

My school was OK, but I just wanted to do music. I was a bit of a daydreamer. I wish I'd gone back and paid more attention.

I don't write constantly; it's two serials and a novel a year.

I have rules about eating, exercising and rules about staying positive. And these rules are sacred to me.

I don't eat cereal actually... Frosted Flakes... that's as close as I can get.
