Hi Katy. Was just looking back at your website. You gave a workshop to my year 7 class on Thursday afternoon. I forgot to ask you a question on Thursday. You have a link on your website to a Shaolin website. I’m curious to know the link. Do you practice a martial art like kung fu? Or is it more of an interest or fascination as a writer in oriental culture? Kind regards, Paul.

Hi Paul,
If you click on the link, it should take you straight to the Shaolin website - let me know if there seems to be a problem with it. I don't do any of the martial arts myself, but I did have to research the early origins of kung-fu for my third book, Spirit Hunter. You're right - it's more that I'm just interested in the subject. I do love yoga, though, which has strong similarities with the more meditative side of kung-fu, and helped me understand the process of letting go of everyday thoughts.
