"Maisie's dad only takes her places where there are no people. Which also means no technology, so they can't just call for help when they get in trouble. Her adventures also mirror my own, because it's easier to write about things I've actually done, like bounce across Antarctica in a trailer, abseil down a cliff or find secret messages in hidden passages deep under a pyramid.

"Speaking of which, in her latest adventure Maisie and her dad are on their way to the pyramids but end up crashing in the desert instead, along with a man who might possibly have kidnapped them. Stabby the scorpion has quite a big role. There's also a fennec fox, winner of the Cutest Fox Award every year since I made it up."
