Daily Life A day in the life of Brian Tanner y day begins at seven, when my wife Judy brings me a cup of tea in bed. What a luxury! I sit there and think about everything I have to do in the coming day. Our two children get up and get ready for school. I hear the bathroom door slamming and the sound of the shower. I keep out of the way. They have to go out, but I work at home, so they always have to use the bathroom first. I go downstairs in my pyjamas, and we all have breakfast together in the kitchen at about eight. We have juice, coffee, toast, sometimes even bacon and eggs. We all like a big breakfast. Judy takes the children to school and goes to the university, where she teaches history of art. The house seems very empty and quiet without them. I always start work at nine o’clock exactly. Writing is such a solitary job, you must have a regular routine! First of all, I usually look at what I typed the day before. I sometimes change it all. I don’t write quickly or easily. I think about every word, and rewrite each sentence at least four times. At 11 I stop

M

for coffee and take the dog out for a walk. We live in a village, and there is lovely countryside to walk in, especially in spring or autumn. Then I write for another two or three hours. I never have lunch. I need to get on with my work. I try to write about a thousand words a day. At half past three I collect the children from school and have a snack with them. I love chatting to them about their day! Then they do their homework and watch TV. I often sit and watch with them for a bit, until Judy comes home and makes the dinner. She’s the cook in our house! I usually put the children to bed and read them a story. Most days we’re all in bed and asleep by eleven but on Fridays we often go to bed later. My last thought is usually, ‘I must write more tomorrow!’

he Stokes family are having a lot of problems with jobs and housing this year. Carrie is working as an assistant in a sandwich bar, but it is only a temporary job and the wages are low. She is hoping to find something better soon. Her fiancé, Adam, is still unemployed, and he is finding it difficult to get a job at all. They are also looking for a new flat. They’ve looked at a lot, but they haven’t found one yet. At the moment they are living with Adam’s mother, Liz, in her two-bedroom flat. The problem is, there’s no room for Carrie’s young son, Luke.

The situation is hard for Carrie and Adam, but they visit Luke almost every day, and take him to the playground at weekends. Adam’s older sister, Zandra,

is leaving her mum’s home for the first time next week, to share a flat with two other young women. Zandra works for a mobile phone company, and she earns a good salary. She works long hours, but she says she loves her job. At the moment she is saving hard to buy things for her new home. She sometimes helps her brother and lends him money, but she is also very critical of him. ‘Why can’t he get a job?’ she says. ‘Is he really trying?’ She calls him ‘the black sheep of our family’ and the brother and sister often have arguments.

My ROOM

ou may find it strange that my desk has got a garden gnome on it. My son gave it to me. I’ve got three sons – 13-year-old twins and an eight year old – and almost all the objects that there are on my shelves are connected with them: they are of no great financial value but they remind me in some way of my boys. The photographs are also mainly of my kids. And above the desk there are some other pictures. I think every writer needs pictur es in their room for inspiration. There are thousands of CDs in my room because I always listen to music when I’m writing. I’ve done it since I was a teenager, when I first started writing in my bedroom in Bromley. Silence makes me feel rather uncomfortable, nervous. The wallpaper was in the house when I got here, I’ve kept it, and indeed fought to keep it, because it is like being in an Indian restaurant, and I always wanted to spend all of my life in an Indian restaurant. At the bottom of the wall there’s a picture of a girl sitting down. This is a drawing of my mother, done by a friend of hers in 1943. Next to that, on the right, there’s a portrait of my father. My mother drew it in 1954, the year I was born. Above that there’s my Oscar nomination for My Beautiful Laundrette. I don’t read very much. I don’t have time, but I certainly accumulate books and the room has got piles of them everywhere. I hate throwing away books.

Reading

I usually work in the morning, I try to start around seven and work until around midday and then I do other things. I’ve got several typewriters but you can’t get the ribbons these days. Computers are wonderful for writers, but they do encourage books that are too long. I write by hand first and then type it up. Writing with a founta in pen is a real pleasu re and many writers feel very strongly about their pens – you’d be surprised at how some of the toughest guys can’t wait to tell you about their new Mont Blanc.
