Autorenporträt
I was born and educated in Kent, U.K. and later went on to train to teach Biology under the London Institute. I married and had two children and now live in Southport, a beautiful, Victorian, seaside town in the north of England.
I began writing creatively relatively late in life while studying for an English degree as a mature student. As well as writing I am an avid reader of many genres .I also like to paint using acrylics, tend my garden and walk Tilly my Jack Russell.
