I have been writing since I was old enough to hold a pen. As a child I wrote plays, or perhaps the better description would be performances which I acted out for my family, usually dragging my sister into the show or forcing her to act out improvised scenes from our favourite cartoons ("You cannot harm me, my wings are like a shield of steel!" - anyone remember that? Yes, Batfink was a particular favourite! ) I also wrote short stories and started a dozen novels which unfortunately did not see the light of day. Again, I involved (read tortured) my family and friends, who proved their loyalty because those earlier tales, though an outlet for all the grand adventures playing out in my head, were, shall we say, rough around the edges! I self-published my first novel in 2008 and I haven't looked back since. I'm fond of all the characters who take up space in my head and enjoy sharing them, hopefully providing a little of the joy they bring to me. Family is a strong theme throughout my stories and I'm fortunate to have some excellent role models. As well as being a writer, I'm also a British Sign Language Interpreter, and recently qualified as a Professional Supervisor. As a reader, I have a variety of tastes and devour just about anything I can get my hands on! I can easily be pulled into the magic of a good book, and often view characters like old friends. My favourite genres are science fiction, mystery and crime.
