I am the mother of two gorgeous daughters, and live in the beautiful Midwest of America with the love of my life, How lucky am I?

I was born in Johannesburg, S.Africa, to British Parents and spent my early years running barefoot in the sun. I lived in Stockport, England, from age 5.(not much sun or bare feet there!) Studied Law at the University of Sheffield and briefly practiced as a Lawyer in Manchester. I traveled a little, married my High school sweetheart on the Beautiful Island of Maui, Hawaii and eventually made my home in the American Midwest.

Now my children are both at school, I am finding a lot more time to devote to developing my writing career. I love Helium and have sold a number of articles through marketplace. (Trust me, the system was updated recently and the numbers lie!) Marketplace is a great resource and provides a fantastic link between publishers and writers. It certainly works for me!

My Kids, writing,my garden, cooking, traveling and my husband ( not necessarily in that order!)

My favorite memory ...

Why I write ...

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

whatever my bookclub has decreed!

My first job ...

Saturday girl at John's Barbers in Cheadle Hulme, Stockport.

My best moment ...

None of your business!

My inspiration ...

Life!
