I was born near Norwich, Norfolk, where my Dad was stationed with the RAF.  I have spent most of my life in various parts of the South West, including Bath, Bristol, Cornwall and Devon.  I also lived in Prince Edward Island, (home of Anne of Green Gables) near Nova Scotia, Canada.

Keeper of the Enchanted Pool, is my debut novel.

I have always loved books and writing, for as long as I can remember.  It is only in recent years that I have had the time to really concentrate on my writing, as dragging up seven children can be quite time-consuming.

When the rejection letters came flooding in for my first offerings, I thought I had better get some help.  I did this in the form of three writing courses with the Open University and gained a Diploma of Education in English Literature and Creative Writing. 

Also, the review process by members on YouWriteOn.com was invaluable. I learned so much from the very knowledgeable, lovely people on there.

The learning process is a constant ongoing wonderful process.  You can teach an old dog new tricks! 😉
