About N. M. Thomas
I was born in the West of France, a region I like a lot. We moved around a lot with my parents and ended up in Paris area when I was five.
I lived around Paris area until I was twenty one and decided to move to England to improve my English (yes, just like that!) It wasn't easy to be in a country and a part of Britain itself (East Yorkshire)where I could not understand people talking to me. The accent was so important that it took me about a year to become fluent. I stayed there for four years and decided to go back home to Paris. I met my husband, who is American, and finally, only stayed just over a year in France as we moved to the United States.
I've always loved literature and foreign languages. I speak fluent French and English, and know some Russian, Italian, Spanish and German.
I started to write poems when I was a teenager. My dad actually influenced me a lot, he used to write beautiful poems in French (and I keep telling him he should publish them!)So, I carried on writing poems until I decided to start writing books.
I've got two amazing children who keep me on my toes all day long so I only get some time to write at night, but I would not change that for the whole world!
And I find inspirations from the music I listen, Lifehouse, Casting Crows, Fireflight and others, but also and mainly from instrumental music, original movie soundtracks (those I love!)
