She has now written nine, perhaps the best known of which is The Ninth Life of Louis Drax, which was turned into a movie starring Jamie Dornan.Now she has written memoir, one no-one would ever want to write.Your Wild and Precious Life, is, at its heart the devastating story of the nine months after her youngest son Raphael died suddenly at the age of 25.

Renowned designer, Rachel O'Toole talks about set and production design for Season 3 of Prime Video's 'Upload', which begins streaming today. You may not know Rachel O'Toole's name or face, but you do know her work as being the production designer on such films and series as, 'Space Force', 'Book Club', 'The 9th Life of Louis Drax' and 'Witches of East End'. We spoke with O'Toole on being a minimalist in her real life, how her production and set design work keep 'Upload' grounded in a near future reality based virtual world and what tech that went from science fiction to science fact has come about since season one. 'Upload' Season 3 begins streaming today, October 20, 2023 on Prime Video. Official Synopsis: 'Upload' is a sci-fi comedy series from Emmy-winning writer Greg Daniels (The Office, Parks and Recreation, King of the Hill), set in a technologically advanced future where holographic phones, self-driving vehicles, AI assistance, and 3D food printers are the norm. And, forget about dying – instead, you'll be “uploaded” to a virtual reality afterlife, and enjoy all the comforts of a world-class resort. Provided you can afford it. In 'Upload' Season Three, we pick back up with Nora and freshly downloaded Nathan as they navigate their relationship, while racing to stop the mysterious conspiracy that threatens to destroy millions of lives. Can they shut down Freeyond, and finally have a real life together? Or is it just a matter of time until Nathan's head explodes? Meanwhile, in Lakeview, a backup copy of Nathan has been activated and Ingrid's not about to let this second chance at love slip away. Back in the real world, Aleesha rises through the ranks of Horizen by managing AI education, and falls into a new romantic relationship. And Luke, all alone in Lakeview, is forced to come up with the funds to pay for his stay in paradise, driving him to work in The Grey Zone. #PrimeVideo #Upload #UploadSeason3 #Interview #FanboyNation
