The inspiration for the novel

Sintoff was inspired by a journey I took that exposed me to various environments and their juxtaposition. Although it was a fleeting journey, the characters and the unique environments I imagined remained with me until their liberation onto paper. Each scene flowed naturally and the storyline evolved seamlessly, revealing the nuances of the protagonist and antagonists. The characters were brought to life with every word and it was not long before they were introduced to the world.

The initial idea for the edifice in the novel was inspired by the building of a company I had worked for, post graduation. It was an expansive site that had been neglected in part, and one derelict wall, which I walked by daily, soon became embedded in my mind, forming a semblance of the final construction.
