Autorenporträt
Born in London during the second world war, I was saved from a bomb-damaged house during an air-raid by my quick thinking mother. Possibly from the shracknel scatches, I developed a rare blood disorder which led to me spending parts of my childhood in hospital.. Being restricted to genteel activities allowed me to indulge my passion for literature and develop great skills with handicrafts. ¿ At the age of 16, I met Derek, a handsome young policeman, the intended blind date for my best friend. My friend was unwell on that evening and the relationship between Me and Derek blossomed. We got married a couple of years later and had two daughters. Derek left the police force and we jointly embarked on careers in the care profession. ¿ After seventeen years as a care home manager and with our children grown up, I was able to devote more time to the activities that I enjoyed; this included enrolling on a writers' course which unleashed my literary skill. Having several short stories and articles published inspired me to write my seven published books.
