When I first met Oliver I thought I had a novel to discuss with him. I very soon found that what I thought was a novel was really a glorified memoir. In a few short sessions Oliver showed me how to structure a novel, how to plan in the round rather than tailing off in a straight line. He showed me the vitality of dialogue and how to pick out small observations which bring the story to life.
