"Lorraine is an absolute professional, who does her research to make sure the questions she's asking are fresh and engaging for both the author and the event attendees. And she makes it fun for all involved! If only all interviewers were like Lorraine!" Natasha Lester

"Lorraine Horsley is a brilliant interviewer, full of insight, compassion and a deep understanding of topics she explores. Her ability to make you feel comfortable and willing to expand on the most sensitive of subjects is unmatched." Barry Nicholls

" I loved my chat with Lorraine! She is a warm and gifted interviewer, with great enthusiasm for storytelling and an attention to detail that made my work shine! It was an absolute pleasure to discuss The War Nurses with Lorraine/her, knowing I was in good hands - and I’d make myself available any time she asks!" Anthea Hodgson

" Lorraine created a welcoming environment in which to interview me about my novel, Acacia House, which offers insight into the sensitive world of palliative care nursing. Lorraine had read the novel closely, engaged with the central theme, and prepared intelligent, well-focused, pertinent questions. Rather than a simple Q & A, Lorraine’s empathic engagement with my responses enabled a deeper audience understanding of the text." Vivien Stuart
