Sue Johnson is a poet, novelist and playwright. Her work is inspired by the Worcestershire countryside near her home, eavesdropping in local cafes and reading a wide range of novels and fairy-tales. When she's not writing she enjoys cooking, walking, yoga and visiting National Trust houses.

Sue's short stories have been published in most UK women's magazines, 'Allas' in Sweden and 'That's Life - Australia.' She also writes books aimed at helping other writers.

She published two novels with Indigo Dreams Publishing - 'Fable's Fortune' and 'The Yellow Silk Dress.' Her third and fourth novels 'Fortune's Promise' and 'Apple Orchard, Lemon Grove' were originally published by Endeavour Media and are now republished by Toadstone Press. Her fifth novel 'The Girl With Amber Eyes' began life as a My Weekly Pocket Novel.

'Apple Orchard, Lemon Grove', 'Fortune's Promise' and 'The Girl With Amber Eyes' are also available in audiobook format. They are narrated by Martin Hussingtree (narratorsuk@gmail.com)

Sue has published three joint poetry collections with poet and environmentalist Bob Woodroofe of Greenwood Press (www.greenwoodpress.co.uk)

Sue is very fortunate to have lexical-gustatory synaesthesia - which means she interprets some words and names as a specific taste. Synaesthesia in some form affects 4% of the population and is a gift, not a problem. Sue has created a short guide to the condition 'Synaesthesia - tasting words in a rainbow of sound' which she hopes will help others.

Sue is a Writing Magazine Creative Writing Tutor and also runs her own brand of writing classes. Further details of her work can be found at www.writers-toolkit.co.uk

4.0 out of 5 stars 4-star inspiration
Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2014
Even if we take away the MB&S overtones for this book, Surfing the Rainbow still offers the writer endless possibilities for ideas merely by tapping into the concept of colour. What does a particular colour ‘say’ to you; what do you ‘see’ when a colour is mentioned in conversation? Sue Johnson has created a series of exercises to help add a vital spark to your writing such as: ‘What images does the word ‘indigo’ conjure up? Or ‘create a story about someone buying a yellow silk dress from a charity shop to wear to a party ...’ Our imagination takes over and draws on the images of colour we have stored in our brains. The author is a home study tutor for Writers’ News magazine and so her exercises can be used to inspire a writers’ group as well as the individual. We all get a but jaded from time to time and this is a fun way of getting those creative juices flowing again.

Sue Johnson's Surfing The Rainbow is a real golden lucky dip of brilliant ideas, both for writers and for other creative people who have got `stuck' in their imagination. Simple exercises which are easy to follow, tasty recipes to help the inner man phyisically and follow up suggestions to keep the creative juices flowing. Anyone who writes or is thinking having a go should read this book and try out her ideas.

I was sold on this book before I bought it because I love my angels and things but as a novice writer I found it well thought out and inspirational. It's made me more aware of all my senses and I've used the lessons well in my daily life. I don't just hear the traffic anymore I'm also aware of the birdsong or lack of it. This is I feel a tiny wisp of knowledge that can make or break a character or plot. Thank you Sue. If nothing else I'm grateful for the insight you've given me into my daily life. Iliterally stop to smell the roses. It matters to the development of my craft and my soul.

I am a reiki master and work with chakra's daily, I am also a writer-in-training and found Surfing The Rainbow to be insightful and truly inspiring. There are so many writing exercises to get your teeth in to and wonderful visualisations to help find your inner novelist. Would highly recommend even if you don't know a chakra from a chorizo!
