Basically anything that involves playing on or in or even near the sea. She also enjoys kayaking, fishing, swimming, and rowing. Liz also likes surfing and body boarding, things she is not very good at, and can get scared of big waves but still likes having a go at them. She takes a ton of pictures and there is nothing more she likes than just on a rock somewhere with her camera, tea in a hot flask, and the gorgeous sunrise coming up over the horizon. She also likes to encourage other people in writing their own stories, too.ĭespite it being her job, she views writing as a sort of hobby. Liz grew up with her mom, dad, sister, and brother. Her first piece of fame came to her when a poem she wrote, called “Jinx’s Shop” was published in the local paper when she was nine.
